Shabbat is a very special time at camp in which campers celebrate Judaism through songs, dinner, conversation, dancing, and a beautiful Saturday Torah service. Shabbat begins on Friday at about 5pm when song-leaders and staff stroll to all of the cabins and pick up excited campers who join in their singing and strolling.

Campers clean up and get dressed in their favorite finery. My, everyone looks so nice!

After a delicious Shabbat Dinner with fresh camper-prepared challah, campers participate in freylach (dancing), campfire discussions and then head back to their cabins to rest. On Saturday morning campers eat breakfast and go to Makom Shalom, our beautiful natural amphitheater for Torah Service, Tawonga-style.
