Our staff in training (SITs) from Emma Kaufmann Camp are officially off on their annual trip!
Since 2006, an endowment created by the trustees of the Philip Chosky Charitable and Educational Foundation and the Jewish Federation’s Israel scholarship fund have partially supported nearly 1,000 of our Staff-in-Training (SITs) who have travelled to Israel as a critical element of their leadership training and a cornerstone of their transition from teen campers to full-fledged members of our EKC summer staff team. However, in March of this year, we made the difficult decision to revise our SITs’ travel plans and intentionally created an entirely new (and powerful) experience that we believed would explore the vastness of their Jewish peoplehood and cultivate a lifelong connection with their Jewish roots.
Join us in wishing them a safe and meaningful trip as they explore and learn about Eastern Europe over the coming days! ... See MoreSee Less
