The saying, “time flies when you’re having fun” couldn’t be truer than during this summer at Sci-Tech. While Sci-Tech is filled with new, innovative, and exciting activities, it is really the people who make camp the special place it has become over the past 9 years, and the past 2 weeks. Todah Rabah (thank you) for making this session so special.

My Sci-Tech experience started last year. I came, had fun, made friends, and this year I thought I’d have to start over. I came, and I was pleasantly surprised. I sure did get to meet new friends, but I also had fun with old ones. We did all kinds of things this session from starting revolutions in our halls to everything else. But these kinds of things, it’s what we do at camp. It’s how we live at camp. I’m just happy that I was able to be here for it, and I can’t wait to do it again next year. So thank you all.

I would like to thank my hall friends and counselors for making my first year special. I enjoyed all the fun I had with people in Video Game Design and all of my chugim. The first week, I got the chugim Chemistry, 3D Printing and LARP and the Shabbat Shelective Puzzles. In Chemistry, Ben the Chemist and David made our minds blow. In 3D printing, we got to print cool designs, and it gave me info about my own 3D printer. LARP was fun and action packed. Puzzles with Sam was cool, and Koshermon with Rabbi Emma was interesting. The second week, I got Chemistry and 3D printing again which I was excited about. I got Tennis this time which was fun, exciting, and chill. And today, I got to help Sam, Emma, and Idan finish the Frosty Frost puzzle. Song session was fun and entertaining. However, none of this would be possible for me without the counselors who spent time teaching me and others, including Ben, David, Dvir, Ben, Neta, the Evil Tim, Maya, and of course, the best counselors ever who entertained Ramon 1 – Willow, Emma, Sam, and the DM, the excellent egg shed, AKA Eshed or Steampunk Eshed. I also enjoyed the friends I made. There’s so many that I don’t have enough time to give shoutouts. Don’t forget about the amazing Ramon 1 traditions – the Squirtle Wordle and Shrek the Musical, plus DND. Thank you all for listening, and I’m glad I could have had all these experiences.

And this has also been the best summer of my life. The activities here at Sci-Tech were life changing for me. I was in the Robotics workshop that has inspired me to do work to do robotics as a career. When I first arrived the camp, I didn’t know anybody. And now, I’ve made so many more friends. I loved all my chugim including Chemistry, Minecraft, Magic: the Gathering, Puzzles. I also like how on hall night, we did LARPing. I learned lots of new things, including how to play Magic: the Gathering. I also learned how to work with VEX robots and how awesome the community here is. I learned from my counselors Gil, Micah, Ben, my machonichim, Ezra and Eli. I’m so sad to go, but I will never forget the incredible time I had here at camp. I will 100% come back next year.

The Sci-Tech Times
At each meal in the Chadar Ochel (dining hall), the Sci-Tech Times is presented as a slideshow with the weather, interesting STEM content, drashes, Hebrew words, pioneer scientists, and photos from the day. During the Journalism chug, campers collaborated to make a printed edition to distribute to all of camp.
