Our last Shabbat in Machane was a beauty! It was a spirited, inspiring, fun Shabbat with hours and hours of singing and dancing! By the fourth Shabbat, the chanichim know exactly what to do and when, and so they gave it their all.  After some rain on Friday night during …

The Edah Daled chanichim, after leading the way in Color War earlier this week, and displaying their budding leadership skills throughout the past three weeks, were given a special trip today — whitewater rafting! They left very early this morning, and headed to Ohiopyle State Park in southwest Pennsylvania to …

Wow — that was an intense two days of Color War we just finished! And the winner is… Team Yerushalmi! Both teams gave it their all, and both teams’ projects, performances, and ruach were amazing. Team Yerushalmi won by a very slim margin. And last night’s final performances and revealing …

Today was day two of Color War: Bavli vs. Yerushalmi. Shiur this morning focused again on the differences between the Babylonian Talmud (Talmud Bavli) and the Palestinian Talmud (Talmud Yerushalmi). This morning, the chanichim saw how, in part, the Bavli was different because it was edited later, and was thus more …

Something is definitely up around here… There were strange happenings last night in Sugar Grove. At Shekem time a police car pulled into camp, and after a short discussion, pulled away — with Rosh Moshava Shalhevet inside the police cruiser! A few hours later, after the entire Machane engaged in …

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
