Herzl Camp provides medical coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with full-time nurses as well as volunteer doctors and nurses who all live at camp. Our Marp (Health Center) is prepared to deal with all of the normal health issues at camp. Emergency services are provided by Grantsburg Hospital, a fully equipped trauma center.

Ask any Herzl camper what makes Herzl Camp unique, and they will tell you that it’s the meals. Campers eat three nutritious meals each day, as well as a Nosh (snack) in our state-of-the-art Chadar Ochel (dining room). Food is served family style, each cabin or group serving themselves kosher meals prepared in our own kitchen. Vegetarians are welcomed at Herzl and the menu is improved and updated each season to provide healthy, delicious kosher food. Nosh, Chanut (canteen) and special events provide plenty of goodies and dairy treats. For the safety and cleanliness of camp, NO FOOD PACKAGES WILL BE ALLOWED IN CAMP. Any food received will be donated to the Webster Food Shelf.

One of the most beautiful times at Herzl. Everyone dresses in white. Candles are lit. Hands are washed. Kiddush. Motzi. A delicious meal followed by Birkat and lots of singing and folk Dancing. Throughout Shabbat, we alter our activities to make the day more restful, more reverent, and different from the rest of the week. Shabbat ends with the entire camp performing Havdala together.

Conservative, Reconstructionist, Reform, and Orthodox children pray together at Herzl. Our minhag is to create uniquely "Herzl" Jewish services; celebrating Shaharit daily, and reading Torah on Shabbat. Music, Hebrew, and camper participation bring everyone together to pray.

If you would like to see the campus, please call to arrange a visit before or after the summer session. In order to maintain safety and continuity for campers, visitors are not allowed during camp.
