Geshmockster.
my son was in Csmp Agudah and while we were quite happy there i believe that one should have an apropriate experience in Eretz Yisrael. As well my son is a good boy buy highly energetic and at the same time does not like sports. my Rav suggested a traveling camp would be good for him.My guess is that the focus in this camp is not really on the sports. Obviously ruach and learning need to be up to par for him. I really appreciate all your efforts in going out of your way to get me the camps info. Are you friends with R’ Eli ? I plan on calling him tomorrow can send him regards…have a great week!
February 7, 2011 7:44 am at 7:44 am #741985geshmocksterMemberElyaber: not a problem, glad to be able to help you out. Thinking back on my years as a camper in Camp Agudah, I guess I too was not much of a sports guy. The Ruach, cheering & friends, is what allowed me to love CA, but it’s definitely not for everyone. I hope your son does well in R’ Eli’s camp. R’ Eli is a really Geshmake, and just plain awesome guy. I’m sure his camp is great too, and experiencing Eretz Yisroel, sounds amazing.
February 7, 2011 12:40 pm at 12:40 pm #741986elyaberMemberThank you thank you! I will call later on today. I did find out that this trip to Poland is happening and it is being led by Rabbi Krohn. It did not make sense because i was under the impression that he does not do these trip private. Either way i appreciate that you actually took the effort to go out of your way to find out the information for me. It just goes to show what a nice person you are that you had felt my son should be going to CA and yet you dug up this info for us. I also appreciate all you are telling us about the camps director he does sound like a great guy and someone who can inspire and invigorate our son. B
i will tell him IYH when i speak to him that a fellow by the name geshmockster spoke highly of him maybe that is a code name which he will know who you are. Best regards and a wonderful day !

February 9, 2011 1:14 am at 1:14 am #741989not tellingMemberHEY! What happened to dogo? Didn’t he know the whole inside scoop of this new camp? Does he stil come into the CR?
February 9, 2011 3:04 am at 3:04 am #741991dogoParticipantYeh dogo still checks in periodically (sometimes bein hasdorim, trying to shteig..). I try to post when I have something relevant to say on a matter (or to answer someone). I will also try to keep the chevra updated on the new camp when I hear more from my cousin. Is there any thing in specific that u would like me to find out about? (I was also in camp agudah for 5 years so I know about eli merinstein (elmer) he’s a great guy, but I don’t know about his new camp so I didn’t say anything).
R u new to the CR?
February 9, 2011 3:35 am at 3:35 am #741992not tellingMemberI was always checking the CR but recently decided to actually sign up and be part of it, so I’m here to stay!

February 10, 2011 10:43 pm at 10:43 pm #742004LakewoodNJMomParticipantOnly problem with Agudah is that you have to be related. Nepotism is rampant. If they don’t mind being “second class” if they’re not related to someone on the staff (dead or alive), your kids will have a great summer.
February 10, 2011 10:53 pm at 10:53 pm #742005dogoParticipantCaught by the egyptians, isrealis, or your FATHER!?!!!? :):)

February 17, 2011 8:11 pm at 8:11 pm #742030always hereParticipantthis reminds me of the time: I was on facebook, commenting back & forth with my daughter, & my friend commented: “don’t you two have a phone to call each other?!” ;-P
February 17, 2011 8:14 pm at 8:14 pm #742031cutie pieMembervery nice! so happy 4 u! Enjoy it!!! 🙂
always here- LOL!! 🙂
February 17, 2011 8:23 pm at 8:23 pm #742032cutie pieMemberdogo- btw, how do u have internet? ur using ur phone?! 🙂
February 18, 2011 5:23 am at 5:23 am #742033dogoParticipantCutie pie: Yes, and I know I shouldn’t have it (bec its not filtered) but since I got a smart phone At&t automatically added a data plan to the phone, so I put it down to the minimum requirement @ 200 MB a month which is very little so I can’t stream any videos or be on to much. I thought I can get around it when I got my phone but they became very strict on that rule that u have to get a data plan on a smart phone (I bought a refurbished bb), so now I’m looking for a good phone (qwerty keyboard with good camera) and not a smart phone because I want to cancel the data plan.
Always here, I guess ur right, but these days all communication is done through electronics. Also this way one can say or express even small talk and whatever comes to ur mind. However a phone call is usually more official, since there is more of a connection. The tweeting and chatting is also good for reuniting old friends or people that one would never say much to otherwise, and through this u could learn more about the other one, especially since with the instant messaging one just spurs anything that comes to his mind without thinking to much (I’m not saying that phone conversations can’t b like that too).
February 18, 2011 3:18 pm at 3:18 pm #742034cutie pieMemberdogo- I was totally not accusing u, It’s none of my business if u have, I was just curious! and btw, I have Verizon, a good flip phone, dunno what it’s called, but qwerty keyboard and a pretty good camera. (no texting)
I have my own laptop for my school work…(filtered) So that’s my internet connection! 🙂
Anyways, how was the vort?
February 18, 2011 3:43 pm at 3:43 pm #742035dogoParticipantI know that, and what, did I hear right a girl with out texting!?? The vort(s) was very nice (and so was uncle..s new house! And I realy like this community (nice and roomy housing and a huge mix of people) but don’t worry nothing comes close to the ir hatorah!!
February 18, 2011 4:41 pm at 4:41 pm #742036cutie pieMemberyup! no texting, I like it this way, used to have, took it off…lol
Very nice about the vort! I also like that community! lol abt the ir hatorah! 🙂 🙂 So ur in… for shabbos, or in ur hometown? 🙂
February 18, 2011 5:07 pm at 5:07 pm #742037dogoParticipantIn… Stayed here after vort by friend, he lives near bubby (bubba) so I might bring the boyz (with another friend also) over for a visit (or else the old age home is asleep), and for a mini purim seuda…lol! 🙂
