Pesach is all about…generations of family members celebrating the Pesach seder together in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The Gross and Schechter families, three generations of Jewish hospitality for almost a century, help you create lifetime memories. Three sumptuous daily meals include the traditional foods of Pesach updated for the sophisticated palate.
Our full-day programming opens up a realm of classes that range from basic computer programming classes, new to our schedule, to shiurim, Daf Yomi, Aleph Beta video presentations and current events in the United States and Israel. We have classes on contemporary topics of interest in the Jewish world. We offer classes on defensive driving, CME classes for lawyers and cooking demonstrations which serve to help you in your daily life. Our scholars-in-residence are world-renowned in their fields. We round out our programming with art and culture classes, book reviews and wine tasting, always a delight to our guests.
Or pull yourself off the grid and enjoy a game of mah jongg, canasta, or a myriad of board games available upon request. Swim or play tennis, enjoy the grounds or explore the surroundings searching for antiques, or enjoy golf, horseback riding, the Camden aquarium, Liberty Science Center, the Statue of Liberty and more. Manhattan is a short ride away if working or playing in “the city” catches your fancy.
Our nights light up with daily entertainment. Marvel at magicians, sing along with musicians. Our shows include well-known acts and entertainers from around the country, and Ohad joining us from Eretz Yisrael. Nightly entertainment is always followed with special themed dessert galas, sweet and savory to complete your day.
Dynamic day and night camp programs have always been one of the highlights of the Gross/Schechter program. We understand that parents are only as happy as their kids are, and we provide them with on-site fun, their own computer classes, swimming, carnival and imagination/creation activities. All day game room, bowling and mini-golf are sure winners every year for our children. This year we introduce the renowned children’s author, Ann Koffsky, who will headline our special night activities for the children, which include drama-filled storytelling fun.
Join our family of guests at the Gross/Schechter program at the Doubletree Hilton for a Pesach program founded on tradition, peppered with entertainment and topped off with fun for every generation.
