Just adding, even though the population of RBS is largely English speaking, I imagine the camps would be conducted in Hebrew, and the kids might speak Hebrew among themselves, although most of them probably do speak fairly fluent English.

Your assumption is not correct. All camps mentioned in this thread are conducted in English .
though obviously some kids might choose to talk Hebrew to each other, it's not the majority

Right, so even more so, the OP should be warned that if she sends her American kids to a day camp in RBS, it will be Hebrew speaking.
Although the following post actually says the opposite to what I said, that there really are camps that are conducted in English - so I guess the Israeli kids don't come to those. Or they learn English!

Israeli chareidi culturally are not into camps.
Most send to the school camp (3 weeks of July), afterwards there's backyard camps for the really young kids.
once you hit 8 years old or so, nothing

Camps are in English. Israelis go to school camp in July and hang out with cousins and go on trips in August.
You'll find some ads online in the RBS views and RBS Sunshine. Look them up.

Curious if you are in Israel? Because registration here doesn't start until May or maybe as early as April...
In any case, I found the following email for adira (is that what you meant?): Camp Adirah campadirah at gmail.com
Couldn't find one for machanayim (which is located in Yerushalayim). Sorry!
(ETA, I see that last year Adirah did only registration at the end of March)

Send the younger two to bnos and the older to bnos or Adirah. Both are run mostly in English. It’s about 4 weeks long starting the 4th week of July. School goes through June then we have 3 weeks of school camp and then camp starts. They don’t open registration for another few months so don’t bother yet but bnos is a large camp and you can sign up last minute too. My kids went when we moved and we’re totally fine with only English. Now they don’t like it now because it’s so American.
