Shabbat-Take Two!

July 25, 2010Leave a Comment

Shabbat is the most awesome day in Camp Simcha. Hands down. Coby iPods, great singing, and camaraderie abounded. We started Shabbat a little bit late, due to a mild thunderstorm that came and went while we watched in utter fascination and awe. But the energy and excitement that electrified the air even after the lightning was done was amazing as counselors and campers sang and danced as Shabbat came in.

Shabbat continued in typical fashion, with campers giving moving speeches after the meals, and the Duvy Becker Show kept everyone riveted and laughing in their seats.

At the end of the day, the threatening rain held back its temper as everyone was singing and linking arms with each other, drizzling only slightly until we were done, after which the sky opened up with yet another incredible thunder and lightning storm.

Once Shabbat was over, the oldest division was treated to a special bonfire just for them, while it was off to sleep for everyone else in anticipation of our uber-packed day tomorrow!! Stay tuned!!
