Camper Life Cycle
Makor: Entering Grades 2-5
The Makor division is home to Beber Camp’s youngest campers. During the summer, Makor campers are introduced to a well-rounded view of all program areas and the experience is focused on building relationships and developing new skills. Many of our Makor campers are away from home for the first time and their counselors make sure they get the attention and care needed to make the most of their experience.
First time Makor campers are given the option of coming to camp for our 2 week rookie program and can choose to extend their experience to 4 weeks. Please note, that after their first summer at camp, all kids must come for a minimum of 4 weeks.
Makor campers participate in all of the Beber Camp activities including our out-of-camp trips. As a division, they go to a waterpark in the Wisconsin Dells and campers who stay the full four weeks will also participate in a one night camping trip.

Program for Campers with Special Needs
The Inclusion program (Yad B’Yad) at Beber Camp is designed to provide life-changing experiences for campers ages 7-18 with learning, emotional, and developmental disabilities.
The program is fully inclusive and campers live in a bunk with all the other campers in their age group. This inclusiveness allows for an amazing experience for the campers who are disabled and non-disabled alike. It allows all the campers to achieve the ultimate goal of a safe and fun environment where they can learn valuable life skills and grow as people.
Inclusion campers receive one on one staff support as needed from a counselor who received intensive special training during staff week. At Beber Camp we pride ourselves on being a camp that promotes individual and community based growth and this applies to inclusion as well where programming is designed to increase independence and improve social skills.
