Each summer, hundreds of people come together at camp to create intentional Jewish communities. Active, eager creation of personally meaningful Jewish experiences happen every day.
Camp is filled with longstanding traditions that carry over from year to year, but every summer is different. Each summer, every member of the camp community is actively invited to contribute to the “newness” of being Jewish. How will we as staff participate in creating this intentional Jewish community? How will our identities be enriched by our summer experiences? How will our offerings enhance the camp’s Jewish journeys of discovery?
Think about some of your practices and traditions. Yours, your parents’, your grandparents’… Everything from holiday observance and traditions to food and life cycle. What aspects of your story do you wish to bring, which do you think will resonate, and why? How do we become enriched by the merging of everyone’s ideas, perspectives, traditions, desires, and understandings? We invite you to consider these questions and more, as we prepare for our upcoming summer.
