No Smoking Performances & Singing!
Here’s the video of all of the edah schtick & singing from our “No Smoking” pep rally!
In a new twist, Rabbi Gelb hosted a Muppet Show like event, including a number of special performances from our rashei edot (division heads). It was fun to see these great performances and I loved how exciting all the kids were to see the hanhallah perform! (Michelle & I also participated in the fun, providing some gentle heckling as Statler & Waldorf!)
And, of course, we had all the usual inside jokes and singing of edah songs from each edah, that’s always a part of “No Smoking”.
At the end, as has become our tradition, the Nivonim kids sang all of their edah songs! The ruach of our chanichim/ot (campers) was amazing!!!
