Overview
In the verdant backdrop of Putnam Valley, is a humble, yet charming abode for curious young campers- Eden Village Camp. A compact non-profit organization, it operates with a heart larger than its physical size, demonstrating how from small seeds, mighty trees grow!
At Eden Village, the focus is set on a rich array of activities to stimulate young minds. From science to sports like baseball, basketball, and soccer, to more tranquil pursuits such as rowing and sailing — the schedule is as diverse as the present world is. Not forgetting the potential next big thing in STEM, little academics can dive deep into their love of learning here. Intriguingly, the camp also extends its arm to Jewish customs and culture, providing an in-depth understanding that libraries and classrooms can seldom offer.
The beauty of Eden Village lies not just in its ability to offer these eye-opening experiences, but also in its community-oriented approach. Numerous families, who routinely struggle to provide beyond the necessities, are given the chance to gift their children these transformative experiences at Eden Village all thanks to benevolent scholarship donations. The camp's thriving farm, once a mere field of rocks, stands as a testament to the power of unity and communal effort.
Be it the enormous financial support that made an extravagant $1.6 million renovation a reality or the hundreds of strong hands that tirelessly worked to build a flourishing farm, Eden Village is a brilliant showcase of what can be achieved when kindness, generosity, and determination come together.
Eden Village Camp, beyond being just a camp, is a fresh breeze of hope, corroborating that it’s not always the size but the spirit that counts! Magic does happen – sometimes via a bat and ball or a chemistry experiment, other times via a Hebrew chant or a boat ride on a quiet lake. For every child that steps into our close-knit Eden Village family, we do our best to make that magic tangible.
