Bike Show!
When the campers heard that there was going to be a bike show they weren’t expecting the absolutely mind blowing performance that was put on by the Dialed Action Sports Team! The campers where awestruck as they did insane flips, and tricks with their high ramps, and performance gear. They even lined some of the staff members up and did a bike leap over them! Then, three of the head staff had to sit on the edge of the ramp and watch as one of the performers flipped above their heads! The show was fantastic, and a great first in house entertainment show this session! Because of the nine days, these events will happen more frequently! The fun has just begun!

Goodbye Month 1: See you next Summer!
It’s crazy how fast time flies when in Gan Yisroel. Unfortunately for some of the best campers here, their time till next year has come to an end. The banquet was inspiring and emotional as the head staff and learning directors gave out rewards and certificates to the most accomplished learning classes and best behaved campers. The MBP and sports rewards and trophies where handed out as well and the campers spent their last meal singing camp songs in an uplifting spirit. The vibe was indescribable, and you could tell what the campers truly felt about this amazing summer. Each camper will truly be missed, and we hope to see you back next year for another unbelievable summer of a lifetime!

BOG WAR!!!
“Attention all campers and counselors, your attention please! Tonight we are playing outdoor laser tag! Everyone must make there way to the hill and dress in something dark, and then go back to the square and wait for further instructions!”
The campers scattered across camp to get dressed up for an exciting on Campus activity with specially rented laser tag equipment. When the campers returned to the square, there where a few staff members going around and painting each campers face brown, claiming it would make everyone invisible when the night vision goggles where given out! Completely bewildered, the campers obliged, and waited as a large yellow truck pulled up with the laser tag parts. Suddenly the doors burst opened and the staff screamed “BOG WAR!!!” And it was off to a start! The teams where split up, the generals, and lieutenant generals where divided, each explaining his teams Toichen. The scavengers came next and boy did they get the floor rolling! From and Israeli barber shop to an international cooking show, these skits where surely a success! The next morning there was Mishnayos Baal Peh which was an inspiring and unbelievable success! Following was also the Halacha skits which explained different Halachos in humorous ways!
One of the highlights of bog war in general is the plays. The staff and campers together put tireless effort in preparing everything, and the Achdus is amazing! This is an opportunity when everyone talents are used to the max! Each teams play came out amazing, explaining each Toichen beautifully, and providing great lessons!
As Bog war came to an end, all could say that with the amount of effort, fun, care, and work put into it, everyone came out inspired, and driven to do better! Just another Bog war in CGI!
