Ramah Darom

In 1994 a group of enthusiastic supporters gathered in Charlotte, NC to launch the creation of a new southeastern location to join the national family of Ramah summer camps.

The group funded a feasibility study that would ultimately lead to the creation of a world-class year-round facility and an expanded mission to include a Ramah camp in the summer and additional programs throughout the year designed to inspire a lifelong love of Jewish values, tradition and community for youth, adults and families.

Adventure, connection, friendship, fun and joyful Judaism await in the North Georgia mountains! Camp Ramah Darom is a place where laughter abounds, friendships are formed, everyone feels welcome and each day brings new opportunities to celebrate Jewish life. Here, children have fun and are challenged to reach new heights by our caring and supportive staff.

Registration for Kayitz (Summer) 2022 is OPEN for new and returning families!

In addition to 4 and 8-week Camp sessions, Gesher Leadership Development Institute, a range of Tikvah Support for our campers and young adults with disabilities, Ramah Darom now offers three ways for younger campers to step up to a 4-week experience: Ta'am (Taste) of Ramah, a 5-night program for rising 2nd graders; Garinim, an 11-night program for rising 3rd graders; and Nitzanim K'tzara (Short), an 18-night modified session for rising 4th graders.

Ramah Darom is an open, supportive and inclusive environment, welcoming campers, staff, families and friends with diverse abilities, backgrounds, ethnicities, and gender/sexual identities. Ramah Darom's Henry and Annette Gibson Tikvah Support Program supports campers with neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome, intellectual disabilities, communication disorders, ADHD, anxiety disorders and other disabilities.
