Another incredible day

Grade trips have now been completed! Grade 6 had an amazing Trampoline trip and returned to camp for a delicious late chicken dinner. Section C was divided in half between a challenging Rope course and paintball shooting. The grade 7 bochurim will alternate next week with the same two outings iyh.     The entire section returned to camp to enjoy their very own special barbecue.

Sports had taken off to a great start!  All sections had their sports drafts and all leagues are not intensely involved in the various sport activities they are assigned.

The Hatomim events have also kicked off really well-and the boys are thoroughly involved in keeping up with their missions.
