Shabbos Mevorchim Elul was celebrated as would be appropriate for the special month. Tehillim was highly encouraged. All campers were treated to a fresh doughnut, and section C was once again indulged with a a special breakfast buffet following a packed house of tehillim.
After Shabbos, section C bunk war broke out with the help of Rabbi Nechemia Deitsch, the visiting Shliach. Section C is heavily involved in their own war. Campers are preparing songs, plays, skits and more. The hidden talents are quickly being recognized by every camper involved.
As many campers made Hachlotas for Chof Av, quite a few included “saying Chitas”. A sponsor came through with plenty of Chayeinus to help implement this Hachlato.
After a lively Shabbos, the race was fierce for Shabbos competition. The winters are bunks Yud Alef, Daled and Chof. Yud Alef and Daled went bowling today, and chof will be rewarded shortly iyh.
Overnight 2021! A memorable event. The setting: a nearby farm with open fields and lots of friendly animals, under a clear – star filled sky!
After setting up the tents and sleeping bags, enjoying barbecued hotdogs in fresh buns, campers sat around the enormous fire, inspired by the stories and songs they shared. The warmth continued late into the night- as campers drifted to sleep in their designated sleeping locations.
Everyone was bused back to camp early this morning, for a quick cereal & milk breakfast and off for some well-deserved sleep. Revile was postponed – followed by davening breakfast and a day full of sports, activity and lots of fun.
Looking forward to a very special Shabbos Mevorchim Ellul here in the Rebbe’s camp.
Have a great Shabbos.
The outdoor water park was the destination for all campers yesterday! Following a delicious Pizza lunch all campers of all departments of camp, and staff, boarded the many buses to this amazing park. Upon arrival, Mincha was davened and supper was served before entering the park. Campers and staff enjoyed the amazing slides, pools and wave pools the park had to offer. Everyone was greeted at the buses with a fresh chocolate Danish before heading back to camp for a well-deserved good night’s sleep.
Our huge backfields were transformed into several scenes in Cracow. All the hidden talents of our amazing staff came to life, with the building, painting back drops, creating costumes, and acting out the suspenseful-annual-staff-outdoor-play. The silent audience enjoyed the incredible acting as well as professional sound and lighting. The suspenseful play depicted the importance of Emunah and Bitochon combined with the constant Hashgocha Protis in every scene.
At a late hour, all campers returned to their bunk with lots to discuss, internalize and analyze. Everyone was treated to a late reveille this morning, to be well rested for the big day ahead iyh.
All divisions of camp were treated to a special activity. Every camper and staff member decorated and painted his own CGI shirt. The activity was creative, enjoyable, and gave each camper amazing results. Campers were seen proudly wearing their new piece of art.
Grades 4 and 5 were treated to their special barbecue events – beautifully prepared for them by their counselors and head staff. A great time was enjoyed by all.
Mazel tov to Yaakov Wenger from Montreal upon his Hanochas tefillin, celebrated here in camp with his father and friends. Lots of Nachas to the entire Wenger family.
