Shabbat in Camp Simcha

August 18, 2012Leave a Comment

What do you get when you combine girls looking their best, singing, dancing, bingo, a choir, a hilarious skit, and an unbelievable amount of energy? Shabbat in Camp Simcha! Prayers and songs warmed all of our hearts. Our campers put on a skit about a Jewish mother trying to get gowns for her seven daughters. The Jewish humor left us all in giggles. The Israelis put on their very own red riding hood skit, in hebrew. We played a camp-wide game of Bingo. Chavy, Batsheva, Shayna, Shira, and Miriam all shared inspiring stories and thoughts with us. Chavy sang us a song she wrote, about cancer also being for the best. Shira told us that she finally understands why we are called Camp Simcha, because true happiness can be felt here. The Shabbat left us all on a high that I cannot put into words. After it ended we danced the night away, and our hearts will forever keep on dancing!
