Tawonga Tidbit

Tawonga Tidbit – Making the Most of Session B

It’s the 2nd to last full day of the session, and campers are making the most of their time here blending bike smoothies in the garden, playing all types of sports, cooking traditional Israeli foods, getting crafty at A&C and celebrating goat Baaaat Mitzvahs.

No matter what block campers are participating in, they have the opportunity to learn new skills, team build, express themselves and have fun. Lucky kids!
