REGISTRATION FOR OVERNIGHT PARTICIPATION AT SHABBATON 2024 IS CLOSED.

Join your Beth El community for a joyful, reflective, and rejuvenating weekend away in the beautiful hills of Santa Rosa at URJ Camp Newman. Our annual Shabbaton will be May 17th-19th  starting at 4:00 pm on Friday, going through lunch on Sunday. 

This is a special time each year when Beth El community members of all ages step back from daily life and come together for a weekend of fun, refocusing and celebration. We will journey this year to the beautiful URJ Camp Newman, where we will be renewing, reclaiming and revitalizing. Our community will celebrate Shabbat through a program that includes activities for kids, families, and adults attending without children; communal meals; and Jewish celebration and learning. Throughout the weekend expect engaging learning sessions, swimming, nature walks, meaningful Shabbat celebration, camp-style song session, schmoozing, performing skits and more! 

We're so glad you can join us for this meaningful community experience! 

Three family-friendly meals are served each day. We are able to accommodate most allergy needs and dietary restrictions with advance notice.
