But in June, Camp Ramah in the Poconos, Inc., which operates Camp Ramah in the Poconos and Ramah Day Camp, announced that the day camp operation would end after the 2026 season. This is one of them,” wrote Andrew Barnett, president of the Camp Ramah in the Poconos board of directors; Miryam Seid, CEO of Camp Ramah in the Poconos; and Amy Schulz, the director of Ramah Day Camp; in an email to the Ramah community dated June 11. “Following a rigorous, multi-year review of enrollment trends, operational realities, and financial projections, the Camp Ramah Board of Directors has made the painful decision to close Ramah Day Camp following the 2026 season,” the letter concluded. In 2026, Ramah Day Camp still has 166 campers, according to the camp directors. Even though Ramah Day Camp and Camp Ramah in the Poconos are run by the same organization, the former is not necessarily a pipeline to the latter.
