EVENTS AT CAMP HARLAM
A personal visit to Harlam is the best way to learn about us!
Offseason Visits
We offer tours of camp for families in the Fall and Spring seasons on weekdays and weekends. Tours are typically 90 minutes long. You can register here.
If you are unable to visit camp, one of our professional staff is happy to find a time to schedule a Zoom meeting with you or visit you in your home to learn more about your family, share what makes Harlam so special and answer any questions you may have. Please contact Rachel Steinberg at RSteinberg@URJ.org with any questions.
ROOKIE DAY: SUNDAY, JULY 12, 2026
Rookie Day is a terrific opportunity for prospective new campers to enjoy a full day of fun at Camp Harlam! They’ll participate in group activities (like arts and sports) with other kids their own age, eat lunch in the Chadar Ochel (Dining Hall), hear from “real” campers about what camp is really like, and earn a certificate at the completion of the program. A camp tour and Q&A with our camp directors will be provided towards the end of the day for parents.

Registration for Rookie Day will open in March!
