Our Core Values

Kindness, Respect, Community

Camp Chi is guided by the principles of Kindness, Respect, and Community. These values are equally as important in the Outpost Village.

Curiosity

The Outpost Village emphasizes a fourth value: Curiosity. We believe immersion in nature presents campers with a unique and incomparable space to explore their identity and connect with their natural selves.

To us, it is necessary that:
The natural world is accessible to everyone.
The natural world is an integral part of our everyday lives.

Campers will be given the opportunity to explore how they relate to these values and to experience the natural world through their unique Jewish perspective.

Accommodations

Campers and staff live together in custom designed 30-foot yurts, a traditional-style round tent, which are divided by campers’ gender. Each camper has a bunk and a shelved cubby, and everyone can enjoy a common lounge area and electrical power.

At the center of the village is our familial fire circle, the hearth and home of the Outpost Village, along with a surrounding native plant garden and a communal pavilion. A full bathhouse with sinks and showers is a short walk away from the yurts. Although the Outpost Village feels secluded from the outside world, it is only steps from the rest of Camp Chi’s 600 beautiful acre campus.
