History and ideology will come alive through innovative activities that focus on telling the story beginning with the Balfour Declaration and ending with understanding future directions for the State of Israel. Please make sure to check our weekly newsletter for a recap of the week at Machaneh!

Please join Camp Moshava, Wild Rose in our Sefer Torah Campaign in memory of Rabbi Moshe Kushner z’’l and in celebration of our 75-year legacy of providing meaningful experiential Jewish camping to generations of Jewish youth. Your participation and generosity in dedicating a portion of this Sefer Torah, will enable you to fulfill the 613th mitzvah, while fostering a love of Torah for future generations of campers. It is a wonderful opportunity to honor Rabbi Kushner’s legacy, while also honoring a family member, simcha or the memory of a loved one.
