Home has those responsible for others, those that common devices and whether or not they are allowed in camp: empower others, and those who nurture growth. It is progression through tradition. Camp is the opportunity to help our community members develop social skills and reverse the anti-socialization and unhappiness that research has identified as prevalent with camp-aged children. The same researchers are blaming “device activity” as ultimately responsible for this social problem (see Jean Twenge, PhD in iGen: Why Today’s Super-Connected Kids Are Growing Up Less Rebellious, More Tolerant, Less Happy – and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood). Our campers, all of whom are in the iGen generation, need sufficient sleep and face-to-face social interactions to grow, to be happy, to thrive, just like the previous generations. For those of us that were campers, some of our best memories often include the late night antics and funny conversations that we had. Granted, there were not many individual screens, but we did have the precursor to the iPod (Walkman, Discman, etc.). Even back then we had FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out), so most of us would stay unplugged. As such, Camp Massad is free of screens and gaming devices. Devices for music and books will be permitted for use in the campers’ individual bunks however the devices may not have any videos/movies or games stored on them. Our expectation is that you allow us to nurture our campers, your children, by complying with this rule and not sending them to camp with devices. Just like for our phone and data policy, all devices not permitted in camp will be Just as our campers' bags are checked for food that is not permitted, collected, stored, and then given back to your child as they leave camp.

  • Jewish Summer Camping and Civil Rights: How Summer Camps Launched a Transformation in American Jewish Culture
    Jewish Summer Camping and Civil Rights: How Summer Camps Launched a Transformation in American Jewish Culture Riv-Ellen Prell Introduction In the first years of the nineteen fifties, American Jewish families, in unprecedented numbers, experienced the magnetic pull of suburbanization and synagogue membership.1 Synagogues were a force field particularly to attract children, who received not only a religious education to supplement public school, but also a peer culture grounded in youth groups and social activities. The denominations with which both urban and suburban synagogues affiliated sought to intensify that force field in order to attract those children and adolescents to particular visions of an American Judaism. Summer camps, especially Reform and Conservative ones, were a critical component of that field because educators and rabbis viewed them as an experiment in socializing children in an entirely Jewish environment that reflected their values and the denominations‟ approaches to Judaism. Scholars of American Jewish life have produced a small, but growing literature on Jewish summer camping that documents the history of some of these camps, their cultural and aesthetic styles, and the visions of their leaders.2 Less well documented is the socialization that their leaders envisioned. What happened at camp beyond Sabbath observance, crafts, boating, music, and peer culture? The content of the programs and classes that filled the weeks, and for some, the months at camp has not been systematically analyzed. My study of program books and counselor evaluations of two camping movements associated with the very denominations that flowered following 1 World War II has uncovered the summer camps‟ formulations of some of the interesting dilemmas of a post-war American Jewish culture.

Since the early camps were local ventures, records were kept in the local offices. Yet, here, too, there were problems, particularly with regard to Camp Ramah in Maine, which was open for only two Camp Ramah: seasons (1948-49), then closed permanently; many of its records have disappeared.

That office moved from Phila­ delphia to New York and then back to Philadelphia, and many of the Shuly Rubin Schwartz Maine records were probably lost or discarded at that time.

    Special Articles Jewish Education in the United States: Recent Trends and Issues BY JACK WERTHEIMER L/ON, G REGARDED BY EDUCATORS AND THEIR ALLIES as the ne- glected "step-child"1 of the American Jewish community, the field of Jew- ish education finds itself at the close of the 20th century the object of in- tense scrutiny and great expectations. Writing of the current "plastic moment" in American Jewish education, the historian Jonathan Sarna sees it as one of "abundant innovations, an unlimited number of poten- tial directions, innumerable theories, and vast uncertainty."2 Perhaps never Note: I wish to acknowledge with appreciation a number of individuals working in the field of education who gave generously of their time and expertise to answer my questions and steer me toward sources of information. At the William Davidson School of Jewish Education of the Jewish Theological Seminary, I consulted with Aryeh Davidson, Barry Holtz, and Carol Ingall. Mary Boys of Union Theological Seminary and Linda Vogel of Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary helped me with the larger context of religious education in America. At the Jewish Education Service of North America, Jonathan Woocher and Leora Isaacs conversed with me at length; Paul Flexner and David Shluker provided valuable data. At other Jewish institutions based in New York I was advised by: Robert Abramson of the Education Department at the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism and Jan Katzew, his counterpart at the Union of American Hebrew Congregations; Steven Bayme of the Department of Jewish Communal Affairs at the American Jewish Committee; Jerome Chanes of the National Foundation for Jewish Culture; Alisa Kurshan at the Continuity Commission of the UJA-Federation of Jewish Philanthropies of Greater New York; Yossi Prager and Marvin Schick at the Avi Chai Foundation; Nessa Rapaport of the Mandel Foundation; and Elliot Spack of the Coalition for the Advancement of Jew- ish Education.
