Sprout Westchester is a summer day camping experience of Camp Young Judaea Sprout Lake open to campers entering Pre-K through 6th grade.

Sprout Westchester, a Young Judaea Day Camp, is a place where children come together to create a diverse and welcoming community rooted in fun, friendship, strong values, and a meaningful connection to Jewish life and Israel. Camp Young Judaea Sprout Lake has been a residential camp for over 40 years in the Hudson Valley. Three years ago we added our urban day camp in Brooklyn, NY. We are thrilled to include Sprout Westchester (Formerly Camp Discovery) as part of our family. Young Judaea Sprout Westchester Day Camp

We’re officially in the flow of the school year… homework, backpacks, busy mornings, and all! 📚🎒

And yet somehow, we still find ourselves dreaming about camp.

The sunshine. The muddy sneakers. The songs. The friendships. The belly laughs. The big adventures and the little moments that made Summer 2026 so special.

Maybe it’s because camp doesn’t really leave you when summer ends. 😉

We hope you’re finding a little time to dream about Sprout, too. Because around here, we’re already looking forward to the next adventure! 🌻

Chag Pesach Sameach! Happy Passover from Sprout Camps!

As we welcome the New Year, we wish our Sprout Westchester community a year filled with sweetness, joy, connection, and countless moments that make our hearts feel full. 🍎🍯

Today, as we observe Yom Kippur, we are reminded of the importance of reflection, forgiveness, and taking responsibility for our actions. It can also be a beautiful opportunity to talk with our children about the power of saying, “I’m sorry.”

At Sprout Westchester, we believe that these meaningful conversations do not have to be complicated. We can teach our children that saying sorry means recognizing when we have hurt someone, taking responsibility, and thinking about how we can make things right. Just as importantly, we can remind them that everyone makes mistakes, and that there is always an opportunity to learn, grow, and try again.

From our Sprout family to yours, we wish all who participate a meaningful fast and a day filled with reflection, forgiveness, and connection. May this New Year bring sweetness and peace to you and your families. ❤️

G’mar Chatim Tovah.

🌿 How has it already been a whole week without camp?! 💚

The property is quiet, the fields are empty, and the echoes of laughter, splashing, singing, and “CAN I HAVE SNACK?!” have finally started to fade. 🥹

While we definitely miss the magic of summer, there’s no slowing down here, it’s already time to start dreaming, planning, and preparing for an even bigger and better 2027! ✨

To all of our campers (and our incredible staff!), we’re wishing you a smooth transition back to school, a year filled with new adventures, and just enough camp memories to keep you smiling until next summer. 💚

And don’t go too far… 👀
Keep your eyes open for future Sprout Westchester events, updates, and the launch of our 2027 registration!

Until then, keep spreading that Sprout magic. 🌱☀️

Once a Sprout camper, always part of the Sprout family. 💚

🍌 CAMP GOES BANANAS! 🍌

We seriously cannot believe it’s already the FIRST DAY of the LAST WEEK of Summer 2026! 😭💛

How did we get here?! It feels like just yesterday we were welcoming our campers through the gates for the very first time, and now we’re heading into our final week together!

This week, we’re going BANANAS as we celebrate our summer theme: CAMP GOES BANANAS! 🍌🌴 Get ready for big adventures, lots of laughter, unforgettable moments, and all the silly, wonderful camp magic that makes Sprout so special.

We are determined to make this the BEST WEEK EVER and send Summer 2026 off with a giant, joyful, banana-filled celebration! 🍌☀️💦🎉

Let’s make every moment count, soak up every last second, and finish this summer with a BANG! 💛

LET’S GO, SPROUT! 🍌🌱

💚 The best part of camp? The people. 💚

The friendships made at camp have a way of becoming something so much bigger than summer. Campers meet new friends, counselors find their people, and sometimes the connections made here become friendships that last for years — even a lifetime. 🥹

There’s something incredibly special about watching a camper find their person, a counselor become the counselor they’ll never forget, or a group of kids turn into a little camp family right before our eyes.

And now, somehow… there are LESS THAN TWO WEEKS LEFT of Sprout Westchester Summer 2026. 😭

We are absolutely not ready to say goodbye.

Not ready for the last songs.
Not ready for the last swim.
Not ready for the last silly inside jokes.
Not ready for the last hugs.
And definitely not ready to send our campers and staff home. 💔

So for these final weeks, we're soaking it all in. The laughter. The friendships. The chaos. The hugs. The memories.

Because that's the magic of camp: summer ends, but the relationships don't. 🌱💚

Here's to making every remaining moment count.

Another Wonderful Wednesday at Sprout Westchester! 💚💛 (Wow...that was a lot of W's! 😄)

What an incredible day we had together!

We kicked off the morning the best way we know how, with singing, dancing, smiles, laughter, and so much camp spirit! ☀️🎶

Today's highlight was our outdoor cooking experience! Our campers harvested fresh tomatoes, zucchini, and squash straight from our camp garden before creating their own batter and frying the vegetables over the campfire. 🌽🍅🥒🔥 We also cooked fresh corn and enjoyed the delicious harvest from all of the hard work our campers have put into our garden this summer.

There's something so special about watching children enjoy food they helped grow, prepare, and share with friends. Moments like these remind us how meaningful camp can be.

Every day at Sprout Westchester is filled with joy, discovery, friendship, and unforgettable memories, and we are so grateful for each moment we get to spend together.

Here's to finishing Week 6 strong, we can't wait to see what tomorrow brings! 💚🌱✨

🌧️ Rain? No problem! At Sprout Westchester, a little wet weather can't stop the fun! 💙

We kicked off the week by bringing Outdoor Cooking indoors, and our campers whipped up some absolutely **delicious banana boats**! 🍌🍫🔥 Filled with gooey chocolate, melty marshmallows, and lots of smiles, they were the perfect rainy-day treat.

At camp, we know that the best adventures aren't determined by the weather, they're created by our amazing campers, creative staff, and positive spirit. Rain or shine, there's always something exciting happening at Sprout Westchester!

We have so many meaningful activities and exciting surprises planned, and we can’t wait to share them with all of our campers!

Today was all about celebrating Friendship Week! 💙💚

Our campers had the opportunity to make some new friends by asking thoughtful questions, learning about one another, and creating either a friendship bracelet or a magic wand inspired by all the wonderful things they discovered. It was a great reminder that while we’re all unique, we often have so much more in common than we realize.

This afternoon, we put on our scientist hats and explored some hands-on science experiments. Thankfully, we managed to keep (mostly!) dry while having a blast, and we were even able to spend some time outside enjoying the fresh air.

Another day filled with friendship, laughter, learning, and memories at Sprout Westchester! ☀️🧪✨💙
