Deep in the verdant heartland of the United States, tucked away like a shy hedgehog, lies a magical state known as New Hampshire. Now, New Hampshire may seem like just another state on the map, but oh boy, it's as different as a unicorn wearing a polka-dotted raincoat! It is here that the trees whisper ancient stories to the wind, and the mountains stand tall and proud, guarding the secrets of time. But the true magic of New Hampshire is in its glistening lakes and winding rivers, perfect for an adventure-filled bout of boating and canoeing. And you know who enjoys this activity the most? Yes, you guessed it right - the kids of New Hampshire! They are a special breed, folks! They paddle across the waterways like miniature sailors, their laughter echoing across the water, and their eyes sparkling with the reflection of the sun. Now, let's talk about one such kid, Captain Chuckles, a boating legend in his own right. Captain Chuckles, with his mop of red hair and freckle-splattered cheeks, is as mischievous as a leprechaun in a candy store. This lad, in his tiny canoe painted in a riot of colors, is a sight to behold. Captain Chuckles and his motley crew of friends, spend their days exploring the waters, having epic splash wars, and most importantly, creating memories that would last a lifetime. In New Hampshire, these kids aren't just paddling boats, they're paddling their way to adventures. The rippling water beneath them is their magic carpet, taking them on journeys that would make even Aladdin green with envy. So, the next time you look at a map, remember, New Hampshire isn't just another state, it's the land of Captain Chuckles and his canoeing comrades!

Founded in 1909, it is the oldest Zionist youth movement in the United States and its Hebrew name Yehuda Hatzair (יהודה הצעיר) or Hashachar (השחר), meaning “the dawn”. Young Judaea has 15 regions throughout the United States and is affiliated with the Federation of Zionist Youth (United Kingdom) and Tzofim (Israel).

For older students, college programs focus on volunteering and interning in Israel, as well as Birthright trips. Young Judaea’s university arm was formerly called HaMagshimim, meaning “the fulfillers”. Through these programs, Young Judaea strives to encourage and inspire Jewish youth to get involved, learn, and grow in their Jewish identity.
