ALUMNI PROGRAMMING
The Sci-Tech Alumni Committee is a group of dedicated staff, campers, and leadership alumni volunteers working with Sci-Tech’s full-time staff to help drive both staff and camper alumni engagement, build alumni programming, and keep YOU in touch with the camp community, even after you’ve moved on to the next phase of your journey. You may have heard of our signature event, camp’s Alumni Weekend, which happens each year in July, but we also host virtual events like Game Club and watch parties, in-person gatherings in hub cities, and host a vibrant online community in our Alumni Discord server — and so much more!
As camp grows older each year and our community continues to grow, our Alumni programming will too, and we’d love for you to be a part of that journey. This page will stay up to date with information about our biggest events, like Alumni Weekend, and smaller events on the calendar to the right, but the most up-to-date information will always be available on our Sci-Tech Alumni Discord server (see below!), so you’ve got a few different ways you can choose to stay in the loop and involved!
With gratitude, The Sci-Tech Alumni Committee

A big part of what keeps camp running is a combination of charitable donations and fundraising. From our annual fundraising drives like the Sci-Tech Game-a-thon, to gifts of tzedakah, community contributions help Sci-Tech continue to grow, and support campers who may not otherwise be able to access camp in coming to join us in Byfield each summer through initiatives like the Sci-Tech Scholarship fund. Every penny counts, and it makes a big difference in supporting camp to do what camp does best: helping the minds of brilliant young Jewish scientists flourish each summer!
