ULYOP’s 6th Annual Winter Ski Camp

Just after the “Blizzard of 2010” United Lubavitch Yeshiva of Ocean P’kwy held its 6th annual winter Ski camp! On the cold morning spirits were high as talmidim awaited the 7:15am ULYOP/ Hamasifta bus. The heated bus climbed it’s way over and through unplowed streets making it’s way to our home away from home the841 Ocean P’kwy. After an inspirational/ uplifting davening, day’s Tanya and a hardy breakfast the van was loaded.

By 9:00am we topped off our tank and ventured to our destination, 200 + miles Rabbi Abba Ruben, Chabad of Saratoga Springs.

Learning, davening, fabrengings, the bochrim even benefited in receiving a shiur from Rabbi Kaufman, a well known and loved Rebbe in Satmar yeshiva system from Williamsburg, Ny. Shabbos was spent in the quite mountains of Saratoga Springs, where the talmidim B”H added much to the small Jewish community. By leading davenings, stories of the Rebbeim and even giving over sichas that talmidim learned in yeshiva.

All and all B”H once again the talmiddim returned to Yeshiva with renewed energy and excitement for learning. Having the opportunity to use what they have learned so efficiently will only add to their further growth throughout the year in their davening, learning and Middos.
