The Zimriyah

On Sunday night, the whole camp came together for the Zimriyah, the campwide music festival. This year's theme was the 100th anniversary of Tel Aviv, so each aidah sang a song about Tel Aviv, in addition to their aidah song. The Zimriyah is the first chance in the summer for each aidah to really show off who they are to the rest of camp. Each aidah wears its own color, and when they sing their songs, they sing with all their heart and all their energy. The campers are proud to be part of their aidah, and at the Zimriyah they have the chance to make sure the whole camp knows.
