Tikvah Block Party!

A group of six girls pose playfully in front of a colorful Tikvah Block banner, wearing fun hats, glasses, and holding props. They smile and make silly faces, enjoying a summer camp activity.

We always look forward to the Tikvah Block Party, one of the happiest afternoons of the kayitz!

In this annual tradition, the staff and participants in our Tikvah programs worked together — along with a number of volunteer staff-members and campers — to throw a tremendous street party for all of camp!

Campers from across the edot flocked to the area around the Tikvah tzrifim for music, food, and all kinds of different fun events!  Campers sang karaoke, painted banners, got their faces painted, played giant games of Jenga & Connect Four, competed in bocce ball and corn hole, decorated cookies, created chalk art on the road, and so much more!!

It was wonderful seeing the whole camp gather together for this joyous community event!  We love celebrating Tikvah, and we’re grateful to all the Tikvah staff-members & participants who worked so hard to put on this fantastic afternoon!
