Camp Simcha: A Whole New World

August 13, 2014Leave a Comment

Camp Simcha 2014 has officially begun!!!

Camp is really awesome! As a matter of fact, I am pretty sure that the unofficial camp theme song is “Everything is Awesome” . Either way down to business.

Camp is its own magical little world, with superheroes, villains, and pretty much any storybook character wandering around (I’m pretty sure I saw Darth Vader hanging out with Superman and the Mad Hatter by the front gate). All these characters gathered at the front gate to greet the campers and cheer them on as they emerged in a cloud of swirling fog from the tunnel onto planet Simcha. Did I mention-THIS PLACE IS ELECTRIC!!!(WHAT WHAT).

After arrivals, which involved a crazy four hour dance party with our very own DJ Jon, we hurried to dinner and ate quickly, in anticipation for the surprise special activity which turned out to be-AN EPIC MAGIC SHOW!!! Among other tricks, we learned that a chameleon hat can take on many different forms(including pirate,american revolutionary,and napoleon!!!), and that money can be found anywhere, including the inside of a potato! A special shout out to Justice for being an amazing magician’s assistant, and kudos to Israel for being a good sport about having punch “poured” into his shoe (I don’t know if I would have taken it  nearly as well…). If only we had more time…

peace out

Elkana

P.S. Special shout out to Dr Benjy
