Trip Day! Trip Day! Ooh Ahh!
Trip day is always a great time. It is an awesome opportunity for campers to spend time with their closest friends outside of the Crane Lake bubble. This week Nitzanim, Bonim, Lower Chaverim and Upper Chaverim went off on four different trips.

Hineini – Here I Am!
I am here to strengthen my own Jewish Identity and spirituality and that of everyone in the camp community!
My First Night Ever
My first night at Crane Lake Camp ever took place in the beginning of August 2004, a mere 12 years when I was just a little lower Nitzanimer.
Israel Comes to Camp!
Campers and Staff enjoyed celebrating Israel last week at Crane Lake Camp. We entered the Chadar Ochel to find it decorated in blue and white as Israeli music played in the background.
Overheard at Crane Lake Camp
This summer we started posting an “Overheard at Crane Lake Camp” Facebook status almost everyday. We would like to give you a recap of “Overheard at Crane Lake Camp” so far!

The other day, campers had the opportunity to volunteer at the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York.
Shabbat Snippets 7/11
This week Chaverim led Shabbat Services.The themes celebrated were yetzirah, meaning creativity, and standing up and being counted.
Oh Canada!
“MON-TRE-Al MONTREAL!” That’s the cheer the Olim campers chanted days before they boarded the bus.
This Week’s Jewish Value: Yetzirah
The Jewish Value of this week is Yetzirah, meaning creativity. We do many things here at Crane Lake that involve Yetzirah, so we asked campers and counselors how they show creativity at camp.
Hut, Hut, Hike!
After many summers without the great sport, football has finally been added to our schedule!
