The first session of summer camp for the children of the Northern and Southern conflict zones is in full swing. Hundreds of kids from Kiryat Shimona, Naharia, Haifa and Sderot enjoyed a visit to the zoo, swimming and evening movies.

These children participated at no charge, funded fully by JNF of America donations.

The need to send children to summer camp remains high, and JNF will begin a second session this week.

Over 600 IDF soldiers (Golani) are being camped at a JNF Camp in the north. The camp is too far north to be used as a youth camp, and has been closed since the start of hostilities. These soldier are on a rest at the camp after having served in Lebanon, they come down to Lavi camp for a rest, and then go back up to serve. This is an experiment today, but it seems that the camp will now operate on this basis for the foreseeable future.
