A Jewish Camp for Children and Teens
Camp Mountain Chai expands and enriches Jewish
identity by establishing an atmosphere of knowledge
and love for Jewish culture, traditions and religion.
Through sports, arts, outdoor adventure and
aquatics, campers build life-long friendships,
independence and self worth.
Camp History
Camp Mountain Chai is the realization of a dream of
a number of committed leaders in the San Diego
Jewish community. After years of searching, the
current facility in Angelus Oaks was purchased in 2004 by the Jewish Community
Camp and Retreat Center, Inc.
Formerly Alpine Meadows Conference Center and Camp Osceola, Camp Mountain Chai opened
its doors to Jewish children from San Diego and other southwestern communities in 2005.
In addition to our dynamic summer camp, CMC is available throughout the year for conferences,
retreats and other gatherings.
