ShofarBlast Camp Information for Kids 18 months-13 years

• In order to know how much staff to hire, we need your registration ASAP.
• ShofarBlast programs cost only $18 per camp day if you register by August 20. For a further discount, you may volunteer at ShofarBlast; call Rebecca Gholson at 255-1947 before sending in your registration for a confidential discussion.  Snacks are provided.
• For children ages 18 months-3 years, counselors engage children in imaginative activities, singing and simple games.
• For children ages 4-5, 6-8, and 9-12 counselors engage children in indoor and outdoor games and crafts with holiday themes. A fun and interactive prayer service is held each day.
• Both Rosh Hashanah camp days are from 10AM-1PM.
• Kol Nidre evening camp is from 6:30PM-8:30PM.
• There are two Yom Kippur camp sessions: 10AM-1PM and from 5PM to the end of services. Pay $18 for one or both sessions, but please let us know which session(s) your child(ren) will attend so we can arrange staffing.
• Because ShofarBlast is a volunteer-led program, parents of enrolled campers may be called or emailed in advance of the High Holidays and asked to help in a 1-hour volunteer capacity, such as serving one day’s snack or leading a pre-planned craft. 
• Please call Rebecca Gholson at 255-1947 with any questions.

SB Extra! Information for Teens

• Thursday, Sept. 9th: T'shuvah  10AM-1PM     Immerse yourself in a reward-studded urban adventure to uncover the real meaning of t'shuvah.
