Camp Nageela alumni currently span the globe!

With numerous means of technology at our fingertips, Camp Nageela is currently putting together an alumni commission to put us all back in touch! If you are an alumnus of Camp Nageela, please email us at info@campnageela.org with your current contact information and check out our alumni facebook page.

NEW! Nageela/JEP 2.0 is the alumni program and resource center for our female camp graduates (we plan to get to the boys, soon!). Our program holds monthly events which consist of shiurim, reunions, and general resources that we feel our grown campers might be interested in.

Please fill out this survey so we can get your information and find out what you, as an alumnus, would like to see or hear at our next event!

(Top bnner photo) Camp Nageela hosted a Nageela boys’ alumni reunion for former campers and staff from the tri-state area, including the Five Towns and surrounding communities, in the Catskills August 16-19, 2019.

The Shabbos reunion weekend was the perfect time to reminisce with camp friends. Attendees enjoyed singing and dancing Nageela-style with songbooks of lyrics that accompany the Shabbos food every week.

The reunion was awesome, Shmuli Mintz (aka “Shmintz”), director of alumni affairs for Nageela Boys and staff from 2015 to 2017, said in a news release. “Some of these guys haven’t been back to camp in over 10 years. When they arrived you could see on their faces how the memories were coming back and how happy they were to be at Camp Nageela again.”

Marc Cohen, a former camper turned staff member from 2008 to 2014 helped coordinate the reunion with Mintz. “The reunion was especially incredible for me after coming back to camp for Shabbat for the first time in five years,” Cohen stated in the release. “I haven’t seen some of the alumni in an even longer amount of time. Nageela has meant so much to me over the past 11 years. It was amazing to be back reliving past experiences and rekindling the flame Nageela lit inside me.”
