December 22, 2008 12:02 am at 12:02 am #878838qwertyuiopMemberi was in mogen av its a good camp but a little strict
December 22, 2008 3:28 am at 3:28 am #878839just meParticipantMy 2 boys have been going to Bei Kyta since it started. It has a strong learning plus organized leages and afternoon programs. Both my boys took the life guard course and got Red Cross certified. They both worked as life guards. The boys love the camp and the rabbis, Rabbi Kaufman and Rabbi Beenstock (Beenfield? Some one correct me) know the boys well and the boys like and respect them. The only problem is that it is very far to go to visit on Visiting Day.
Good luck with your decision.

December 23, 2008 1:56 am at 1:56 am #878847A Woman Outside BrooklynParticipantMy sons, at different times, have attended Agudath (Catskills), Dora Golding (Poconos) and Mogen Av.
We’ve also heard rumors, probably caused by that rasha Madoff’s scandals, that Mogen Av was closing. I called the office today, they said everything is fine.

that being said, I can answer specific questions, and all I have to say is positive (learning, rebbeim, sports, etc.)

December 26, 2008 4:32 am at 4:32 am #878875mw13Participantqaws and qwertyuiop: Heller and Mogen Av are both owned by the same people, and are combining. I’m not sure which name they’ll use, but I think the MA staff will run the junior division and the Heller staff the senior.
December 26, 2008 5:18 am at 5:18 am #878876bored@workParticipantdont have internet, were you a supervisor?
December 26, 2008 5:42 am at 5:42 am #878877just meParticipantYoyo, I don’t think Bei Kayta is too materialistic, although these days are different from when I went to camp. Bei Kayta has refrigerators and gas grill for each bunk so the kids don’t bring their own. When you see boys leaving for camp these days, you’d think they are moving away from home!
DontHaveInternet: I don’t know if you know who my boys are, but I will agree with you that they are great guys. They have also been there since the Camp Heller days. Do I have to change my screen name now that you might know who I am? Do you REALLY know who I am just becaue you know my kids? 🙂
December 26, 2008 5:46 am at 5:46 am #878878surferMemberinternet- omg.. i think i know who u r… r u coming to the reunion?
December 26, 2008 6:59 am at 6:59 am #878879qawsMemberQwertyuiop- where did you hear that from?
December 26, 2008 7:05 am at 7:05 am #878880yenta101MemberI saw an ad in this weeks yated but it didn’t say anything about any of them closing from what i can recall..they just had one ad together!
December 26, 2008 5:40 pm at 5:40 pm #878881dont have internetMembersurfer—who do u think i am???
