Habonim Dror Camp Tavor is a non-profit organization operating a progressive Jewish summer camp in Three Rivers, Michigan, serving campers from the Midwest since 1956. The camp maintains a small, inclusive environment with a cap of 150 campers per session and a 4:1 camper-to-counselor ratio, designed to foster lasting friendships. Located on the shore of Lake Kaiser, it offers a coed, progressive Jewish setting focused on social responsibility, a connection with Israel, and personal Jewish identity. It has historically drawn campers from across the Midwest and emphasizes community through its programming. Programs run one to five weeks for campers entering grades 2 through 10, with grade 11 students eligible to travel to Israel through the National Movement, and grade 12 students able to participate in the Madatz (counselor-in-training) program. In addition to traditional camp activities, Camp Tavor provides Hebrew language elements, a kosher kitchen, Shabbat celebrations, and features like animals and an organic garden, while emphasizing involvement with the local community and awareness of Israeli current events.
