Recipes from the Garden
Sukkot, which begins this Sunday night, is a holiday to give thanks for the fall harvest. We are thankful for our Campscape garden, and in celebration wanted to share some recipes from the garden! Another Sukkot tradition is to invite friends, family, and even strangers into your sukkah to rejoice- so make some fried green tomatoes and limonana and celebrate Sukkot!

Summer 2018 In Review
“My son had an amazing first summer month away experience at Camp Coleman. He enjoyed each activity, had great counselors, made wonderful friends, looked forward to Shabbat, and came home with exciting stories to tell and fun songs to sing. My son is one of only two Jewish people in his elementary school, so being in a place where everyone is Jewish was a special experience for him. We as parents could not be happier.”

Technological Innovation at the Minsky!
What use is an iPad when it comes to art, you may ask? This technological innovation has allowed the campers to go that extra mile in visualizing and researching ideas in order to make their wildest imaginations a thing of creation.

They then had 20 minutes to create and build their societies with details including what they do for fun, how they communicate, how they get around, their customs, their holidays, and any other cool little details they could think up. The campers came up with things like “our national instrument is the…”, and “we only talk using hand motions and claps”.
