The Shabbos Competition winners were rewarded with tubing rides – on our glorious lake throughout the day!
Campers grabbed their sleeping bags and headed up the hill to our very-own-inhouse-overnight-campsite. Under a clear, bright ski, they enjoyed crispy hot dogs and potatoes and roasted marshmallows. After helping create a huge fire, everyone enjoyed sitting around the fire with live music, as great songs and stories were shared. An extra snack was distributed before they headed to their sleeping bag to enjoy a great night’s sleep under the clear sky!
Section C bochurim, were in their own universe, preparing for the climax of their bunk war- with the grand sing. Every camper dressed in his team’s costume – headed to the decorated Zal. The skits, comedy, songs and great spirit; made for a truly memorable event.
After a decent night’s sleep, the section C boys headed out this morning for their weekly trip. Details to follow.
Section C bunk war is here! The three teams are being led by generals from their section. Songs, plays, and all preparations are done by the boys, with the help of a staff member as adviser.

Preparations are underway for the best grand sing ever, being held tonight!
Best campers in each learning class in grade 6 were rewarded with an awesome-tube-ride on our marvelous lake.
Grade 5 boys had their very own grade trip yesterday. The large group of boys was divided into three groups, alternating between mini golf, Walmart and Tyroparc (rope course), in St. Agathe. The boys returned to camp – all smiles – happy to join the camp for supper followed by a grand bean hunt.
The hardworking staff of B+ prepared special chocolate chip cookies and cinnamon and chocolate flavoured rogulach as an incentive for going to the Mikvah! The project was met with great enthusiasm by all the campers!

After an incredible day for all sections, during Supper, as a celebration for the return of music; the entire camp broke out in a spontaneous dance with music blasting over the speakers.
