Thank you for sending your kid to Herzl Camp!

Their bags are packed and they are ready to go! 

First session Herzl Camp 2025 is just about in the books and your campers had a blast. I can assure you because I think I’ve asked every one of them! For some kids, they made new friends, and that was the accomplishment of the summer. For some kids, they tried new things (climbing the rock wall, water skiing) Perhaps they learned a new skill, maybe picked up pickle ball (a skill that will bring them through retirement, of course). Some kids learned new prayers, some kids learned new songs, but the one thing I know they learned for sure…they learned to be proud of their Judaism and a deeper love for Israel.

The closing bonfire is happening as I type this. It’s a perfect clear sky night. The sun is tipping behind the trees to our west, the campfire is blazing. The guitars are out and songs are being sung. It’s about as picture perfect closing out of Camp as we want for our first session campers. 

We’re sending kids home with awards for accomplishments, Schmutz-busters T-shirts for caring for our grounds and our community and we’re sending them home with a solid dose of the Herzl magic and we sure hope they come back next year.

We can’t thank you enough for sending your kid to Herzl Camp. We’re confident we’re giving them what they need out of our awesome slice of the world. We will always keep trying and we hope you keep having faith in us. Thank you for being a part of this great community. We’ll see you next year First Session.

All is well, safely rest. 

Thanks for sending your kid to Herzl Camp
