Time has been flying because…WE’RE HAVING FUN!!

Monday was our hiking trip to the Kettle Moraine State Park’s Scuppernong Trail. We easily took on the 2.3 mile trail and enjoyed a day at the park with lunch and free time before heading back to camp.

Tuesday night we went to Oconomostock, hosted by Tzofim, and cheered on Nadia and Dima as they performed—doing a dance and gymnastics respectively.

On Wednesday we sponsored Yom Lumberjack and Jill. It kicked off with S’morning (a bonfire, s’mores and breakfast!), continued with Slip ‘n’ Slunch (lunch and slip ‘n’ sliding) and then came to an abrupt, but welcomed halt as we had the opening for Maccabiah Games!!

All day today has been Maccabiah Games and our chanichim have been giving 110% as they earn points for their teams competing in the events, eating silent lunch, and showing their ruach and good sportsmanship.

Our last few days don’t slow us down one bit as we see the dress rehearsal of Tiferet’s big show, have our own unit-wide talent show, and head into our final Shabbat!

Thanks for following along with us through the session!
