Video: A Day in Camp Gan Israel, 1960

After publishing a video last week of the Rebbe’s visit to Camp Gan Israel in Swan Lake, NY in 1960, we obtained more footage of the Rebbe’s visit that summer – and life around camp in general.

The relevant footage ends at the 16:08 mark (the footage after that point is from a few decades later).

    Sorry but the footage after 16:08 is two years later not “decades”.
