Wondering what you should do this Labor Day Weekend (August 30-September 2)? Bring your family and join us for URJ Camp Coleman’s annual Family Camp!
Israel and Israelis
The transition from Zikaron to Atzmaut, tempered by the horrifying news of a pigua (terrorist attack) in Boston, really struck me. How can you be so sad, mourning thousands of Israel’s fallen in the very place where Rabin was assassinated, and then, in just one day, transition into singing and dancing outside of City Hall in Jerusalem?
A Letter to Coleman Alumni (and Contest!)
Want to come back to Camp and enjoy Shabbat in the Hillman Chapel, eat Nellie’s delicious fried chicken, and spend a lazy day hanging out in camp? How about leave your permanent mark on a 12×12 brick at Camp? We need to grow our network. I’m working with the Camp team to get in touch with and connect more alumni from the past 50 years of Coleman’s history, and to do this we need your help.
Discovering the Spark Within
No feeling is more satisfying than watching a child, or anyone, realize his or her potential and make a decision that is going to affect his or her future.
DONATE DUPLICATE DENTAL SUPPLIES: URJ Camp Coleman’s Summer 2013 Camp-wide Mitzvah Opportunity!
While you’re packing one toothbrush, one toothpaste tube and some floss for your time at Coleman, we invite you to pack doubles and donate the extras when you arrive at camp!
NEW Camp Construction Update
Those of us who work year-round for Coleman are frequently asked “what do you do the rest of the year?” Here are just a few things that we have been cooking up for improvements in quality of camp living for this summer
The Mitzvah of Making Your Own Matzah
Each year during Passover tradition tells us to rid our houses of chametz (items that are not Kosher for Passover) and stock up on Kosher for Passover foods like macaroons, fruits and vegetables, and of course matzah. We all know that matzah can be purchased by the box or case, but did you know that you can actually make your own matzah?
Mazel Tov Rabbi Boxman
What a pleasure it is to see Rabbi Boxman in action at Coleman– he plays hockey and ultimate frisbee with the kids and even loads duffle bags on the luggage truck.
