Machaneh Gilboa, Habonim Dror’s machaneh on
the West coast of the USA, published some

reviews of summer camp which currently taking
place. Here we republish a review by the
Shomrimot (8th Graders) Seth, Alex, and

Lazare, from their first week of camp:

What’s up at camp?

At Camp Gilboa, we
do an activity
called Avodah
which is time we
take almost daily
that helps beautify
and maintain the
camp. In our
kvutsah, our
Avodah is cleaning
and beautifying the pool. During this activity, we have planned to
paint multiple symbols and images on the pool to help make it look
better while also cleaning it.

The food in Gilboa is good. My favorite food was the sandwiches.
Consists of exquisite mozzarella, outstanding tomatoes, average
kale, great goat cheese, and mouth watering breed and avocados.

Big Bear’s night sky can rival many, especially thirty minutes out of
town. Every few days we bring blankets to the lake and spend time
watching the stars. During this time we listened to calming music (as
to “protect the vibe”) and watched the sun set over Bluff Lake.
