Monday July 25th : We broke Color War today! It was not only Blue vs White but a perfect chance for informal education as the Maccabees were pitted against Tzahal as wel learned about the Jewish past and present. After a day of divrei Torah, hilarious skits and sophisticated dance moves we went to bed early after a job well done.

 

Tuesday July 26th: We began the day with a drive to Switzerland where we white water rafted for over 12 kilometers through the Swiss alps back into Austria. Upon returning we put on a program for the campers about Tel Aviv where we highlighted the techonological accomplishments and the culture of the city

 

Wedneday July 27th Today was Yerushalyim day, the centerpiece of our camp curriculum. We put on an incredible showcase of the history of Yerushalayim and the Kotel which culminated with the campers penning their own personal letters that we will place in the Kotel next week when we visit.
