Camp Life
Jewish Life
The ELC reinforces values of kindness, helping one another, taking care of the environment, taking care of animals, and respect. Children have an opportunity to be part of a caring community and are supported by their teachers to learn how to negotiate conflict and engage in positive peer interaction.
Jewish rituals are a highlight of the Summer Fun experience, and the ELC all year long. Children experience a taste of Shabbat each Friday through songs, challah-making, Shabbat candle lighting, and putting money in the Tzedakah (charity) box. On Monday we say goodbye to Shabbat and greet the new week with a Havdallah celebration. And, each month we welcome the new moon and share a celebration of Rosh Chodesh.
