For many of us, Hanukkah feels different this year, but together we can share in the light.
With the nights getting longer and days colder, camp seems very far away. On the two month anniversary of the October 7 attacks, the war in Israel and rising antisemitism in our communities casts a gloom.
But you continue to spread light for so many, providing support and comfort for your camp community. We are amazed by how you persevere while facing so many challenges, meeting your mission year-round.
And while it may get darker before we see the light, we hope you can hold on to the Hanukkah warmth to guide you through these next few months.
Wishing joy to you, your family, and your camp communities.
The JCamp 180 Team
