Monday July 15

DATE: July 16, 2019

No one can believe it is over 🙁 That went by so fast! The chanichim/ot enjoyed a morning of camp peulot and then spent the afternoon packing. Shiur today was a review game of the month and goodbyes with their shiur teachers, all staff from our Beit Midrash or staff from other anafim in camp (a lifeguard, a Sports counselor or Art teacher or Village staff). These 17-20 year olds have been role models and older mentors.

Machal had a chance to buy their Stonewear today!

Tonight will be last-minute bonding and schmoozing and remembering all the fun they have had! Each Eidah will be together for night tochnit and a movie. Some will find it hard to sleep at all, so we will keep them together where we can keep an eye on everyone and enjoy the last chance at “eidah-time” 🙂

The morning will begin with Shacharit bright and early so we can have some time for clean-up, breakfast and our last mifkad! It is a beautiful send-off each year and the tears flow freely as everyone will say “goodbye for now”……

We are so grateful for this past month’s fun, learning experiences and friendships and really can’t wait to see your children again in…11 months!!

About the Chanukah Raffle

Dear Camp Stone Community,

It is an incredible feeling to reconnect with everyone once again at the beginning of our 2021 camp season.

We are writing to you today, first and foremost, to express tremendous gratitude.

Hakarat HaTov, literally “recognizing the good”, is an important and fundamental principle in our community. We, at Camp Stone, want to express our Hakarat HaTov to everyone receiving this email for your unwavering support, especially this past summer. Whether you provided financial assistance through your donated tuition dollars, participated in Indoor World, or connected with the Camp Stone community in other ways, together we had an incredibly successful, albeit different, summer experience.

There is no substitute for being in Sugar Grove, Pennsylvania, and this summer, B’ezrat Hashem, we will be back at Camp Stone, in person, in full force.

To achieve that goal, we must continue to ensure the financial success of our home away from home that we all know and love so deeply. The logo on top, featuring the slogan “Stone. Forever.” also features a Ner Tamid, an “eternal flame.” The year 1969, etched into the logo, is the year camp was founded. Symbolically, the overall image represents the idea that Camp Stone began many years ago and must endure forever, always burning brightly, and always an integral part of our collective conscience.

On that note, we are excited to announce that our annual Chanukah Campaign will be a raffle taking place over all 8 nights of Chanukah with prizes for both campers and parents/alumni!!

Please go back to the web page  to purchase raffle tickets and help us achieve 100% participation from our entire camp community!

Looking forward to being in touch with all of you in the near future.

Sincerely,

Yakov & Estee, Co-Directors
