The only trip of its kind, Tour La’Agam (Tour to the Lake) is a spectacular bicycle ride on the Lake Michigan shoreline. You will bike hundreds of miles as you explore the byways, forests, dunes, and the simple enormity and beauty of the lake.

Tour La’Agam is a traveling community that builds itself a little more each day. Your first several days will be spent in camp, training and preparing for the trip, as well as visiting the Trek bicycle factory in Waterloo, Wisconsin. Then you will set off northeast, meeting the lake near Sheboygan. From there you will make your way north to legendary Door County, ferry over to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, and then head back to Wisconsin. You will feel the thrill of the last bike leg of the trip as you pedal right back into Olin-Sang-Ruby Union Institute, with the camp community celebrating your return!

Services are part of each day and Jewish learning directed toward a better understanding of ecology and the land will round out your experience. Of course Shabbat, the highlight of the week, will be a well-deserved day of rest and community. This remarkable ride will be a celebration of the power of the lake and its vitality as well as an exploration of your physical, emotional, and spiritual self.
