Leadership & Jewish Connection

Drishat Shalom from Camp Ramah Darom Wow – what a wonderful Kayitz (Summer) 2023! It is hard to believe that we are entering our last Shabbat and that in 48 hours our chanichim (campers) will return home full of memories and stories to share about experiences and moments that will shape their lives for years ahead. At Camp Ramah […]

Shining stars in and out of Camp

Drishat Shalom from Camp Ramah Darom The sun is finally out today, but even with our rainy weather, we had a bright week at Camp and your chanichim (campers) were shining stars!

Courage, Heart & Kef (Fun)

Drishat Shalom from Camp Ramah Darom Shelach is one of my favorite summer parshiyot! I still remember the peulat Shabbat (Shabbat activity) I planned as a madricha (counselor) some 20 years ago where my chanichim (campers) pretended to be spies just like in the parsha and went all over our kikar (grassy field) at Ramah Darom on a mission! Experiential learning is what makes Ramah Darom so […]
