Camp Moshava is one of seven Habonim Dror camps in North America. Camp Moshava is located in Street, Maryland outside of Bel-Air, and has been in that location since 1985. Previous locations included Annapolis, Maryland, and Buffalo Gap, West Virginia.

At Moshava, campers live according to the ideals of Habonim Dror in a community with values based on cooperation, equality, and many Jewish/Zionist values. Camp Moshava tries to simulate the kibbutz experience while learning about Israel, Judaism, socialism, self-actualization and social justice.

The age groups vary by year and by the number of people attending, but the full breakdown is as follows:

  • Amelim 1 (going into 4th grade)
  • Amelim 2 (going into 5th grade)
  • Chotrim (going into 6th Grade)
  • Tzofim (going into 7th Grade)
  • Solelim or Bonim 1 (going into 8th Grade)
  • Bonim (going into 9th Grade)
  • Bogrim (going into 10th grade)
  • MBI (going into 11th Grade, trip to Israel)
  • Madatz(CIT) (going 12th grade)
