Final Moments in Camp Gan Israel 5774

MOTZEI SHABBOS: After an inspiring Shabbos in CGI, which finished with a moving Shaloshudes where many old-time farewell Gan Yisroel songs were sung, followed by a hilarious Goomba staged by ML, MB and LK, campers gathered for the final time in the Shul, for the Grand Banquet. Certificates of achievements were presented to select campers, (pictured here are only a few of the awards being distributed) some grammen were sung, and a short work-in-progress Camp Video was screened. The event finished with customized duffle bags being presented to all staff members, as a token of appreciation from Gan Yisroel and Chabad Youth. Campers were dismissed to lights out, at a rather late (or early) hour, ready to be woken for the last time in CGI early next morning.
SUNDAY: Campers arose, packed their sleeping bags and pajamas, and headed to the dining room, the last available room still open for Shacharis and breakfast. Amidst teary farewells to campers from interstate, the buses were boarded, and rolled back to Melbourne around 10:00.
Goodbye Gan Yisroel, farewell to those wonderful times...
