SAC Day 3
Queridos Madres y Padres, I heard so many campers telling me that yesterday was their favorite day at camp, ever!

Queridos Madres y Padres, The kids are finally here! Although we’ve only had a half-day with them, we’ve already done so much.

Queridos Madres y Padres, Today started like any other SAC day: Tefila, breakfast of oatmeal, eggs and toast, sessions and cabin cleanup. However, lunch was a bit peculiar.
