“Superbowl Sunday”

June 27, 2018Leave a Comment

Touchdown in camp Simcha Special. Everybody was greeted by our  very own football players in the dining room at breakfast. The dining room was disguised as a football stadium and was filled with the noise of cheering fans. We are super excited to see what “Superbowl Sunday” has in store for us today.

a Million Dreams in Camp Simcha Special

June 26, 2018Leave a Comment

Just as we thought the day couldn’t get more exciting, we had a very special camp cake for dessert at dinner, and it was amazing. After dinner, we had a magic show by Miles the Magician, and he had campers come up to volunteer and help him with his illusions. To end off our amazing New Years themed day, we had our very own “ball drop”. Each camper got a balloon and wrote a wish that they had on the balloon.  All the campers let go of their balloons and lit up the sky with all their balloons. It was such an amazing day and we are so excited to see what else is in store for the rest of the summer.

 

 

Arrival Day Kickoff

June 26, 2018Leave a Comment

We can’t wait for another unbelievable session here in camp Simcha Special. We started off our first day with lots of dancing and Music. Each camper arrived, and was surrounded by dancing staff doing the 2018 Simcha Special song and dance. In between all the dancing and singing there was pottery making and swimming. The first day is going great, and we can’t wait for the day to keep getting better!

Bug’s Life

Today was awesome! After breakfast this morning a helicopter came to give the campers rides! After that we had final workshops for everyone to pick up the amazing things that they made over the session. Later on we had a silent rave “(everyone wears headphones and dances to one of three channels)in the social hall! Now we are packing 🙁 but everyone’s getting ready for tonight’s banquet!

Tower of Terror

Today was a memorable day. We started the day with the breakfast of champions, an amazing spread with omelet stations, waffles, and much more! Later on, we went to the social for a concert from Ohad Moskowitz! After lunch, we had a speech from George Dennehy, a man who was born without arms, and yet can still play guitar and piano!

Toy Story

Bike 4 Chai!!!! We started out the day pretty much like normal, but it was not  a normal day. At 3:15 we had an amazing Division Power Parade, with each division wearing their own hat and chanting their own chant! We then moved on to the tennis court, where we greeted the bikers with a massive party and award ceremony! Finally, tonight’s night activity is the camp musical, “The Grinch Who Stole Simcha”!

Frontier Land

August 16, 2017Leave a Comment

Today was packed! We had super-expensive sports cars (Rolls Royce, Audi, etc.) come to camp, and the owners drove campers around camp! We also had a Frontier Land Shootout behind the parking lot, where campers got to make their own targets, and then shoot them with BB guns! The older campers, 14+, also got to shoot skeet with real guns! Not only that, we had combat archery in the gym, which saw bunks getting bows and foam tipped arrows, and shooting each other to see who can get more hits!
