Wednesday July 5

DATE: July 6, 2023

The morning started at the Chutz, with tefilah and breakfast and shiur. While Eidah Daled stayed to look around and make sure everything was packed and brought back to machane, the other eidot returned and showered, had some peulot, lunch and a fun afternoon- and then surprise! A trip for tonight: Eidot Alef and Vav had an early 5:30 dinner and went bowling. Eidot Bet, Gimmel and Daled had a 7 pm dinner and went ice skating. Great day and great pictures 🙂

Tomorrow is the fast day of the 17th of Tammuz, commemorating the breaking through of the walls around Jerusalem by the Romansm, as they headed towards our second temple. We will have late wake up and programming about the fast day. More on that tomorrow.

Machal had a fun day at Hershey Park, as they make their way back to Sugar Grove, PA, so they can spend the fast day “at home.”

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
