Summer Camp Grows for Jews in Iran

NEW YORK — More than
500 Iranian Jewish young-
sters took part in a Jewish
camp program•in Tehran this
past summer.
The camp, situated in a
wooded area just north of
the city, provided sports,
games, handicrafts, Hebrew
lessons and religious serv-
ices, supervised by a staff of
23 counsellors and youth
leaders.
The program, operating
for the second year in a row,
was financed by the Joint
Distribution Committee, the
Jewish Agency_and the Jew-
ish community of Tehran as
well as by moderate fees
paid by most of the children's
parents. Those who were un-
able to pay were also ac-
cepted,
For most of Tehran's Jews,
summer camping is a new
experience and many parents
hesitated to send their chil-
dren last year when the pro-
gram was first inaugurated.
In Shiraz, which has long

had a summer camp pro-
gram, close to 400 primary
school children in groups of
60 to 70._p_articipated in a
day camp program.
