CAMP CRACKDOWN: Roshei Mosdos Issue Sweeping Summer Camp Standards, Warn Non-Compliant Camps Could Lose Bochurim

Jul 3, 2026·1 min read

A broad coalition of roshei yeshiva and roshei mosdos in the tri-state area has issued a unified set of standards for bochurim‘s summer learning camps, calling for strengthened chinuch, heightened ruchniyus, stricter technology safeguards, and a zero-tolerance policy toward alcohol.

A statement by these roshei mosdos – mostly from the Lakewood, NJ region – states that the yeshivos expect camps to implement the guidelines and warns that institutions failing to do so risk losing enrollment from their bochurim.
