With flames shooting three […]

Dear Ramah in the Rockies Kehillah, We are excited to share “Kavanot Ramah l’Yamim Noraim,” a collection of resources to help enhance the meaning of the upcoming High Holidays.

Year after year, we hear about the power of relationships our chalutzim develop while on their masa’ot, how important the friendships […]
A Purim Letter from Rabbi Eliav I write this letter having just returned from our ranch where we enjoyed the opportunity to meet as a leadership team and go over some changes we are implementing for this summer.

Our NEW Daily Schedule! The most common question heard by summer camp professionals is: What do you do during the rest of the year? And, while we like to joke that we twiddle our thumbs and wait for June, the truth is that our nine months of “off season” are full and busy. Lots of […]
