Masada Week 6

MASADA NEWSLETTER

Dear Masada campers and parents,

Six weeks done, two fun weeks to go! With a few very hot and humid days this week it was apparent that we still have some hot summer days left. This past week we enjoyed fun days such as pajama day, where everyone looked like they just rolled out of bed. Also, on Wednesday, we attended a historic field trip to the USS Slater, the last surviving U.S. battleship escort from WWII. We learned a short history about the boat itself and even got to celebrate the Coast Guard’s 220th birthday!

We had a week of hot and humid weather, it is apparent that the heat of the summer is still here. With all this sunshine, we all must remember to apply our sunscreen often! Sunscreen is provided frequently during the day to make sure all our campers are protected. We also take multiple water breaks every day to ensure that we all stay hydrated in the heat. However, a labeled water bottle is the best idea to ensure that your children are remaining hydrated!

Next week, camp has some great events planned. We have a day where you can celebrate your favorite sports team scheduled for Tuesday, so campers should make sure to wear their team colors! Also, this week we have color games! One of the most fun times of the year, we have teams based on our color and compete in different events, all while cheering the other teams on. This year each color will represent a Jewish holiday, to correlate with this summer’s theme.

Let’s have a fun and safe last two weeks!

Looking forward to another great week,

Mike K., Amy Y., Sarah N.
