Ending the day off on a high!

July 30, 2018Leave a Comment

What an incredible end to a special day a Camp Simcha as the high flying trampoline jumpers from The Sky Divers soared through the air in the gym. Looking back at the day I’m sure all the campers would agree that their highlight would be getting to “pie” their counselors in the face. Great way to celebrate Pi(e) Day, no? The day was filled with incredible activities including: swimming, canvas painting, 3D printing, Krav Maga, pottery and many other activities.

Happy Pi(e) Day

Good Morning! Today is Pi(e) Day at Camp Simcha. We cant wait to see what today brings, especially “pie your counselor” which will take place after lunch!

Purim

July 29, 2018Leave a Comment

What an action packed day at Camp Simcha. The day kicked off with a jaw dropping magic performance by Ilan Smith. Lunch was filled with singing and dancing as the Purim spirit took over. As the music quieted down, cars and Camp Simcha alumni started flooding in for Alumni day. Alumni were greeted to our spectacular carnival and circus. Happy smiles were seen all round as the smell of cotton candy and popcorn filled the air…. Yum!!!! Following the circus was a scrumptious BBQ. As the alumni started to leave and it seemed like the day was winding down, Camp Simcha was privileged to have a surprise concert by world renowned, singing sensation, Simcha Leiner. Not a bad day to end of an incredible day! we cant wait to see whats in store for tomorrow…….

Welcome to Camp Simcha Special 2018! Camp has finally arrived!

A big welcome to all of our campers, new and old. Today was crazy! The campers started arriving in the afternoon, hopping off the bus straight into the fog tunnel where our wonderful staff members were waiting to greet them. Coming out of the tunnel, the campers joined the staff in a non-stop dance party hosted by our very own DJ Hudacris.  Everyone was dressed up in crazy costumes. With superheroes, cartoon characters, clowns, and even an astronaut, the party was rocking! Afterwards, we ate dinner and then went to see our first show of the summer. Chuck the ventriloquist kept us all entertained with his funny puppets and his rendition of supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! Campers even got to go up to become puppets and we had quite a few laughs.

Stay tuned for more to follow!

India Day Comes to a Close

August 23, 2015Leave a Comment

We had banquet where we all sat at short tables on cushions with lamps and jewels as Indian music played. It really felt as if we were eating a meal in India! Afterwards, we thanked everyone for all their hard work and watched the camp video. Then we watched the slideshow and fireworks. Can’t believe the summer is over already! We had a great time! Can’t wait for next year!

India Day Carnival

We had a great time at the carnival today! We enjoyed cotton candy and popcorn as we ran around from booth to booth. There was a photo booth where we got to take pictures with our friends, a bouncy house, a dunk tank, water slide, bungee jumping and many more fun activities! Afterwards, the ice cream truck came and everyone got to enjoy cool ice cream on this hot day! Can’t believe the summer is almost over! We had such a great time every day!

Day 12: India Day

August 23, 2015Leave a Comment

Today is India Day! We felt as if we had walked into India this morning. There was material all over the floor, lanterns, and many other things. After enjoying a great breakfast, campers went off to finish up any projects they had been working on, and collect all their projects. We can’t wait to watch the amazing play soon!

Day 11: Shabbat

August 22, 2015Leave a Comment

Even though we are very sad that this is our last Shabbat in camp, we had an amazing time. After lunch today, we had a skit followed by a BINGO game that we got to win some amazing prizes! We listened to our amazing campers share their stories with us. Everyone sang and had a great time. After Shabbat we had dancing and refreshments. Can’t wait to see what tomorrow will bring!
