Sun, Snow and Shabbos – CGI Running Springs Hosts 150 Children this Winter Break

RUNNING SPRINGS, CA [CHI] — Less than two months after the devastating California wild fires in Running Springs, Camp Gan Israel Running Springs is up and running. Children came from all over California and other Western states. The 6 day camp for the girls and 6 days for boys were highlighted by unforgettable unity Shabbatons, with additional children joining together in a true spirit of Achdus.

Groups from Long Beach, Las Vegas, S. Diego, and Conejo came with their teachers and Shluchim, making it a true Kiddush Lubavitch. For many of the children it was the first traditional Shabbos experienced in their life! Other highlights included: Skiing, Challah baking, Ice skating, “Get to know your kosher kitchen”, skits and a grand concert/dance party with Benny Marcus from 8th Day who rocked the mountain top!
