Youth Groups and Activities

Beth El Youth Groups offer a warm, welcoming, and inclusive experience for kids in Kindergarten through 12th grade. Our goal is to provide a fun atmosphere where our youth feel at home, make friends, and explore their Judaism through informal social and educational experiences. Through our inclusive programs, our youth have the opportunity to build a strong Jewish identity and learn valuable social and leadership skills, as well as gain self-confidence and a positive self-image.

Camp Activities

During the summer, we love to stay in touch with Beth El youth. We plan several day trips each summer where our Beth El youth department members and clergy visit different camps that our youth are attending.
