New York City!

August 21, 2012Leave a Comment

I love New York! An unbelievable amount of energy combined with an incredible amount of smiles, New York trip was a day to remember. The day began with a double-decker bus tour of the city. The campers held up signs and cheered to all the city goers below. Following the rides, we marched through times square until our destination, Bowlmor Lanes. During the march, campers chanted “We can-cer vive”. Fellow sightseers and city residents joined in on the cheers, and held up “I love Camp Simcha” signs. In Bowlmor Lanes our girls had their hair, makeup, and nails done. They also each chose from tons of beautiful gowns. Wigs were donated to girls who did not already own one. Two of our Israelis, Shilat and Yifah, received brand new wigs. They could not hide their smiles as they brushed each others new hair. The girls went bowling while waiting for their makeovers. After everyone was ready, we headed down to watch the broadway show Newsies! The girls all loved the show. With all of our energy, Camp Simcha lit up the city of lights!
