Tawonga Tidbit

July 18, 2021

The balance continues at Camp – moving through a deep loss in the community while simultaneously running our typical fun and exciting programming that supports children to have magical, transformative experiences.

Each day, while healing as a community, we are also observing campers strengthen their sacred bonds of friendship, grow their self confidence and feel a true sense of belonging within our supportive, loving Jewish community. Enjoy photos below from the lake, A & C and other favorite spots around Camp.

A Note on Alternative Foods
🥑 Tasty vegetarian and vegan options are available for every meal, in addition to a “middle table” with alternative meal options to meet every camper’s needs.

🥣 During breakfast, the middle table offers a wide selection of cold cereal and milk (dairy-free options too), in addition to hot cereal with toppings. Each lunch and dinner, campers can choose from options at the middle table, like sun-butter and jelly sandwiches, tuna sandwiches and hummus.

☀️ How’s the Weather?

Sunny with a high of 94, low of 68

Counselors remind campers every day to drink water throughout the day and to apply (and re-apply) sunscreen. These kids are in good hands!

The Tawonga Tidbit provides a daily dose of Camp with our kitchen menu, Camp birthdays and more. We hope this series brings you a bit closer to Tawonga!
