“I don't really know how to put my ILTC experience into words, and I don't know how I can ever thank all of you so much for making my experience more amazing than I ever could have imagined. I will never forget it, and I will never forget all of you for being so amazing!” —Sydney A., Great Midwest Region
“Thank you for giving me one of the best experiences of my life at ILTC. Each one of you are very special to me and you have all changed my life and made me a better person. BBYO is my favorite place to be and you all make me feel like I'm a part of a giant family that supports me and it's amazing. Thank you for a life-changing summer!” —Ari N., Michigan Region
B’nai B’rith Perlman Camp
Lake Como, PA
Perlman Camp is better than ever with renovations to all the major structures and expanded living spaces. There's lots of green grass and outdoor space for activities, sports, programs, and time to relax around the iconic Perlman tree. Participants stay in cabins, divided into four to six rooms, which are staffed by our dedicated college counselors (madrichim). The whole camp is walkable in about 15 minutes.
Make the most of your ILTC experience by also signing up for International Kallah to make it a Perlman Summer!
Is ILTC for you?
ILTC is a great program for Alephs and BBGs currently in 10th or 11th grade who are current or aspiring regional leaders, have attended regional leadership conventions or CLTC (though not required), or have an interest in leading, within or outside of BBYO!
How many teens attend ILTC?
ILTC welcomes around 200 Alephs and B’nai B’rith Girls each summer. Participants come from every region and countries from across the Order.
Who staffs ILTC?
BBYO programming professionals and advisors serve as the site director, program director, leadership director, and leadership staff at ILTC. We’re also joined by Jewish educators, song leaders, Israeli counselors (sh'lichim), expert specialists, college-age counselors (madrichim), and an office manager.
What is the ILTC curriculum about?
ILTC's primary focus is on leadership at the council, regional, and International level. Teens focus on developing a wide range of leadership skills including effective team collaboration, communication strategies, and relationship building, as well as learning how to shape a worldwide movement. Leadership skills are taught in a classroom environment and through hands-on, interactive activities in BluePrint groups. Jewish learning happens daily during Limmud sessions and, especially, at teen-led Shabbat, morning (Shacharit), and evening (Mincha) services.
Is the food at ILTC Kosher?
Perlman Camp is a Kosher facility that only serves foods that have been produced under rabbinical supervision.
What do I do about medication?
Participants must register in advance with CampMeds, a service that provides pre-packaged, pre-dosaged medication to participants who require it. There is a $250 fee for those who do not register and arrive at camp with their medications. The exceptions to this are inhalers, birth control, epi-pens, nasal sprays, injectable medications, prescription ointments, and refrigerated medication.
How do I get to ILTC?
Teens can either be dropped off directly at camp by a parent or guardian, or they can fly into the local airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, Newark, NJ (EWR), where they'll be met by BBYO staff and taken to their program by bus.
