One of the great things about camp is that it brings together people from many different synagogues and Jewish communities, with a variety of customs. At Ramah, boys are required to wear kipah, talit and tefillin in daily services. Camp is a great place for many girls to engage in the practice of wearing kipah, talit and tefilin, and girls who regularly wear them at home are strongly encouraged to continue to do so.
