At Camp Judaea, the safety of our campers and staff is of the utmost concern. This year, our Board of Directors has invested considerably in security upgrades at Camp and we want the entire CJ Family to be aware of these valuable improvements. We deeply appreciate the trust you are placing in Camp Judaea with your children and we are striving to far exceed industry security and risk management protocols for Jewish residential summer camps.

In partnership with the Henderson County Sheriff’s Department and Hendersonville Police Department, Camp Judaea’s security team will be staffed by armed off-duty law enforcement officers on a 24/7 basis while camp is in session. We have also invested in a state of the art surveillance system which is monitored by the officers on duty. We are very fortunate to have an excellent relationship with the Henderson County Sheriff’s department and look forward to another great summer collaborating with them for the benefit of all of our campers and staff.

We also have installed a modern “ram call” loudspeaker and alert system which will both provide greater communications and emergency preparedness when needed as well as programmatic opportunities every day. Finally, Camp Judaea subscribes to One Call Now, a wonderful tool which will help us communicate important messages with camp families via voice, text and email messages in an emergency.
