Wow! What an amazing way to end off our summer! We had a spectacular banquet dinner with all of our favorite delicacies. 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 cuddled under a tent by the tennis court and watched an emotional slideshow while waving glow sticks in the air. What an incredible summer it was in Camp Simcha 2018!
Happy Chanukah!
It’s the final day and we’re celebrating Chanukah! The dining room is decorated with dreidels, gelt and presents galore! Four of our campers performed their original songs by breakfast, starting off the day with a bang. We’re looking forward to an eventful day climaxed with our annual farewell banquet.
Happy Pesach!
In honor of today being Pesach, we played “Slice” in which campers and counselors were instructed to make Pesach-themed dishes. Evidently, some dishes looked a lot more appetizing than others, but everyone had a blast… even the judges who had to eat them! We also had our pre-Pesach car washes which, of course, evolved into an Israel vs. USA water fight! Later in the day, we got into the Shabbat spirit with challah baking. We are filled with both excitement and emotion going into our final shabbat in Camp Simcha. Shabbat Shalom from Camp Simcha!
Swinter Wonderland
It was Canada day in Camp Simcha and we had a blast! Campers and counselors enjoyed a giant bath filled with genuine-looking snow which had the texture of applesauce! For night activity, Pogo Fred performed unbelievable tricks on different sized pogo sticks for us. Later, the staff were treated with sushi, churros and ice cream as a token of appreciation for all the amazing work they do.
Canada Day
Good morning! It’s Canada Day in Camp Simcha! Pretty cool, eh? The dining room has been transformed into an ice hockey rink and is filled with many Canadian flags. Today’s gonna be a doozy! 
NYC Day
What an awesome day! We started by taking a ferry to Governor’s Island, where we enjoyed a delicious barbecue and rode multi-person bikes, all with a gorgeous view of the Hudson River. Then, we bounced our way through Central Park on bouncy balls; that was a blast! After that, we headed to Monsey, where the band “Pumpidisa” performed for us while we enjoyed an overabundance of pizza and fries. It was not only a delightful experience, but also an incredible opportunity for us to show the world what a magical place Camp Simcha truly is.
NYC Here We Come
Camp Simcha is heading to NYC! The buses are currently being loaded and we are just about ready to depart. We are anticipating an amazing trip and are ready to show the world what Camp Simcha is all about!
The Camp that Never Sleeps
It was yet another extraordinary day in Camp Simcha! For first activity, each camper from the Wacky Macs division got a chance to shoot down flying discs at New York Big Shot. Later, the entire camp had a blast playing “Simon Says” with Steve Max (A.K.A Simon Sez) and we found out that campers are far better than counselors at listening to directions! Night activity was a riveting surprise concert by Yaakov Shwekey. Also, April fools! Despite rumors that the New York Trip won’t be happening this year, it was just announced that we will in fact be going to New York City tomorrow!
May the Force (4th) Be With You
It’s May 4th here in camp Simcha and that means it’s Star Wars day! The dining room is filled with Star Wars decorations such as hanging light sabers and Jedi’s. At breakfast, many campers enjoyed play fighting with light sabers which were hand crafted from pool noodles. Looking forward to another action-packed day here in Camp Simcha!
Camp Simcha for the Win!
What a marvelous day here in Camp Simcha! At lunch, every camper had a chance to slam pie into his counselor’s face! Following lunch, many campers and counselors jumped into the lake to remove the pie from their faces. Each division got a chance to compete in a game called “Slam” in which they were forced to make a dish out of mystery ingredients and each received a score from our own “professional” judges. Later, everyone gathered in the dining room for Brady’s Bar Mitzvah. He delivered a beautiful and inspiring speech which was followed by tons of dancing. The high flying trampoline jumpers from Xtreme Team performed for us by night activity. To cap off an already spectacular day… history was made tonight in Camp Simcha! The Camp Simcha basketball team won its first game ever, defeating Morasha in an exciting nail biter, which ended in a 70-67 score.
