Children's Summer Camp  

THIRD ANNUAL GESHER SUMMER CAMP
A Bridge to Friendship
August 4 – 8, 9 AM to 3 PM Daily
Sponsored by Temple Emek Shalom and Havurah Shir Hadash

Temple Emek Shalom and Havurah Shir Hadash are excited to announce the third annual Gesher Summer Camp.
We are now accepting summer camp applications, available at the Temple or the Havurah. Camp activities will be held at both locations. Filled with outdoor games, arts and crafts, song and dance, and lots of camp ruach, campers will be immersed in Judaism while having fun together making and renewing friendships. Several of last year’s campers will be returning.

Camp Director Andrea Shupack will be joining the TES staff on July 1, and one of her first activities will be organizing and directing the summer camp. Andrea brings loads of enthusiasm, lots of new ideas, great energy, her guitar and lots of camp songs to teach to our campers.

Camp is available for children entering kindergarten through 5th grade. Fees are as follows:

  • Members of TES or Havurah $160
  • Second child in a member family $140
  • Non-member $185
  • Applications Due May 23

Applications are available through the office and need to be returned by May 23. Last year we filled all our spaces, so sign up now!

Camp Counselors Needed

We need enthusiastic and responsible camp counselors. Applications are also available for counselors. High school and college students are encouraged to apply. These are paid positions.
