As we creep closer and closer to Opening Day, our tzevet (staff) are learning about the chanichim (campers) who will join us. This morning, our Kallah tzevet took a moment to share some personal thoughts during t’filot (services) in the form of letters to the incoming chanichim. Take a look at a sample of their thoughts below, and keep getting excited for Monday!
Dear Camper,
Monday is your big day,
And I want you to know there’s nothing in your way.
I know it may be scary, I know you’re a bit afraid,
But know that it’s normal and I’m here if you need aid.
There are a lot of kids like you, it’s their first day!
But just remember – everything’s gonna be okay.
So take a deep breath, a big step, and smile, and who knows?
Maybe your next best friend’s gonna be a Kyle, a Sam, or a Joe!
Your madricha (counselor),
Nastia
