Super Bowl Commercials

July 12, 2018Leave a Comment

What would a Super Bowl be without the Super Bowl commercials? Campers and staff members of each division had a blast creating their own Super Bowl commercials which will be displayed tonight for the entire camp to watch! Campers also enjoyed a thrilling helicopter lift which gave them a birds eye view of the beautiful camp grounds!

“Super Bowl Sunday”

July 12, 2018Leave a Comment

It’s Super Bowl Sunday here in Camp Simcha! The dining room has been transformed into a mini football field complete with goal posts, concession stands and tons of football paraphernalia – it looks just like the real thing! The energy at breakfast definitely resembled the electrifying energy of a Super Bowl stadium and we cannot wait for the big game! Go team Simcha!

Arrivals have begun!

Our awesome campers have arrived and Camp Simcha 2018 is in full swing! Each camper entered through a tunnel and was warmly greeted by swarms of singing, dancing counselors and staff.  Afterwards, each camper bravely got up on stage and led a chant which the entire camp echoed at full volume! The session has kicked off in classic Camp Simcha style and we can’t wait for every exciting moment that we have in store for our amazing campers.

Goodbye Simcha Special 365!

July 8, 2018Leave a Comment

Wow, what an amazing way to end off our summer! We had a delicious banquet dinner with all of our favorite foods. After, we went to the social hall to watch the end of the summer video that our media team worked day and night on. To end off our night, we had an amazing dessert buffet down by the lake where we watched fire works. What an incredible summer it was in Camp Simcha Special 2018!

Graduates of Camp Simcha Special 2018

July 8, 2018Leave a Comment

Today all the campers finished up at the workshops and pick up everything they made. During lunch we we had a Bat Mitzvah for Sarala and all out other campers who are turning 12. They had their own special table and a cake made in honor of their Bat Mitzvah. After lunch we had a ceremony for our graduating campers. Each camper spoke about their experiences in Camp Simcha, and there was also a video tribute to all the graduates. Everyone is packing up their bunks and getting ready to go home tomorrow morning.

Shavuos Surprises

July 8, 2018Leave a Comment

The dining room is filled with beautiful flowers and everyone is dressed as flowers, dairy, cows and more. Can you guess what day it is? It’s Shavuot day! What started off as just an ordinary morning turned into a surprise concert by Eli Gerstner. Not only did we have a surprise concert, but the campers were surprised with motorcycles. The motorcyclists are in camp now for all the campers to ride their motorcycles!

Shabbat

July 7, 2018Leave a Comment

What an incredible last Shabbat it was in Camp Simcha Special. Many campers spoke about their Camp Simcha Special experiences and inspired everyone. The campers put on a Shabbat play for the whole camp which was hilarious. Wishing everyone a great week!
