Shalom!
Shabbat is an amazing day at Camp Yavneh, and often is one of the most cherished memories our campers have of camp. So, as a glimpse of what makes Shabbat at camp so unique, I am turning over the newsletter to the campers. Here are some quotes from campers, describing why Shabbat is so special here at camp. Enjoy!
It’s day of peace and rest and pray as a community.

Shabbat is about being all together as a camp. The food is amazing, the ruach, it’s the time everyone has the most fun at camp. It is the time I can step back from the craziness of camp and appreciate what the week has to offer. The week is so much fun but it’s nice to be able to relax on Shabbat.

Shabbos is my favorite day of the week, there’s a lot of free time, time to spend with your friends. The whole week is scheduled and Shabbat is not.
