CGI Poconos is the best camp I have ever been to because everyone genuinely belongs. I’ve been to many sleepaway camps, but CGIP is the one I’ve felt most at home????. Everyone looks out for each other regardless of age and bunks. CGIP has made my summer unforgettable, and I can’t wait for the next one.

CGI was a great experience. I never thought I would go to camp because I was scared. I did not want to leave my friends and family. Once I got there it felt like home. I met so many good friends that I still keep in touch with to this day. I loved camp because it was so fun. I love being with my friends and having a good time. There were so many things to do at camp and I got to do them all. Also just being with new people. Camp was a great experience.

Shabbos in camp was awesome, and exciting. I loved shabbos because we would sing songs and eat delicious food. Everyone is so happy and it enlightens the mood. I love hanging with my friends and telling stories with them on shabbos night after lights out ! I also really enjoyed shabbos especially with a bunch of girls that I feel are my sisters now. Shabbos in camp has a memory in my heart.

The singing and cheering in camp is really what I loved most. Like shabbos and night activity and all the meal times. I love to sing and even though I go to public school I love to be a Jew, so cheering and singing made me feel proud to rep that merch, and feel how fun it is to be a Jew.
