July 2007 - Residential weekend in preparation for the Bar-/Bat-Mitzvah year.

"I loved every second (except the rain!!!)" - Tasha

"Most of all, I liked the 'Pay it Forward' movie, popcorn and crying buckets, Israeli Dodgeball, Laughing our heads off, the immigration widegame, archery, being friends, emotional candles late at night" - Ben

"The improvements to be made are... no changes! I don't want any changes to be made because I think that this is a brilliant weekend and I had lots of fun." - Cael

"I enjoyed archery, the assault course, abseiling, 'open mike', the film, the food, friends, Israeli dodgeball, Ben crying in the film, and, best of all, going to bed really late!" - Daniel

"Fun! (But I'd like room service!)" - Sam

"The highlights were: Juggling with Rabbi Paul, Ben crying while watching a movie (Pay it Forward), Israeli Dodgeball, Rock-climbing, Abseiling, and the Assault course. Improvements? Nothing - except play football outside!" - Rachel

"I liked the Bar Mitzvah auction, the BBQ, the chocolate fondue, the late-night candle discussions, singing songs, making clay models, sharing ideas." - Josh T

"This weekend, I liked the Shabbat morning service, the activities - e.g. archery. I liked eating. I liked the Bar Mitzvah auction and the immigration game, but most of all I liked playing Israeli Dodgeball (machanayim)." - Sam

"For me, the highlights were the activities, discussions, the movie, singing, 'open mike' and the food." - Josh C
