Foundation for Jewish Camp Cornerstone Seminar 2011

Our Cornerstone delegation, Dana Finkle, Emily Meister, Hannah Mellman, Mira Mendick, Sara Liben, David Offit, Solomon Flax, Melissa Stern are off to their training. Our participants have travelled to Capital Camps in Waynesboro, PA to join participants from 47 other camps in an experience unlike any other. They have the opportunity to plan, think, and study with a diverse group of people whom all have the same goal of creating the ultimate Jewish summer camping experience.  The program imparts counselor skills, best practices in Jewish content programming, and teambuilding exercises. Giving counselors the tools they need to succeed means that they’ll come back year after year, helping to build camp community while camp continues to build them.

The Cornerstone Fellowship, made possible by the generosity of the AVI CHAI Foundation, empowers third-year Jewish bunk counselors to view themselves as Jewish role models for both campers and younger counselors alike.We look forward to hearing everything our participants learn and experience at the seminar!
