TRYBAL EVENTS
JOIN OUR EXPERIENCES ACROSS THE COUNTRY
be our guest
One of the best things about camp? It happens once a year. And one of the worst things about camp? It only happens once a year. After hearing from countless alumni that people didn't want to wait a year to see their camp friends or experience the camp magic, the Trybal Ambassador program was born. This initiative brings a taste of Trybal to thousands of young adults all year round in Los Angeles, Boston, New York City, Washington DC, and *new for 2026* Chicago and Denver! Led by outstanding peer leaders, the Ambassadors offer dozens of curated events annually that weave together our communities while welcoming new people into the TrybFam.
Ambassador events are designed for 20s/30s, whether you've been to camp or not. Friends and plus ones are welcome -- the s'more the merrier. Events are promoted in a monthly email digest (join the newsletter here) and on the Ambassadors' Instagram accounts, @trybalbos, @trybalnyc, @tryballax, @trybalDC, @trybalchi, @trybalden.

WHAT TO EXPECT
You know those events where you awkwardly sit in the corner sipping a drink, silently judging the room, afraid to talk the new people?
Yeah, that’s not our style.
Ambassador events are just the opposite. They're hands-on, fun, and made just for people like you. You're instantly welcomed in with a high five and a built-in group of friends.
You don’t have to come in knowing anyone. Just you showing up means that you’re in the right place.
For questions, partnerships, and event suggestions, reach out to Trybal's Ambassador Program Manager, Josh Saleh.
Trybal Ambassadors is proudly supported by the generosity of Combined Jewish Philanthropies and the Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles.
