Dear Camp George Families,
We are excited to announce that registration for our 2023 Mini Mensch program is now open! We are happy to welcome campers who are currently in grades 1-3 to our home on Maple Lake from August 4-7. Mini Mensch is an introductory program perfect for our youngest campers, most of whom will be away from home for the first time. They will experience an amazing four days at Camp as they participate in our diverse activity areas and get to feel the magic of the Camp George. Led by experienced and dedicated camp staff, our Mini Menschers will enjoy a camp Shabbat experience, activities on Maple Lake, and more! We will provide transportation to camp from Toronto and invite our families to pick up their campers on Monday, August 7th and enjoy a camp tour.
Please register directly online at https://campgeorge.org/register/.
If you have any questions about the Mini Mensch program, please email Lauren at lgrundland@urj.org. Looking forward to seeing you all at camp!
