Camp Kadima. We look forward to it from the moment we return from our
Kadlina's Annual
Fall Fundraiser
annual trip till the next year rolls around. This year we spent 5 glorious days at
Camp Sea Gull. Twenty-one clients and staff had the privilege of spending time
in the outdoors enjoying the waterfront, sports field, craft projects and most of all,
the company of loving friends.
Tuesday, Sept. 26th • 7:30 pm
at the
Max M. Fisher Music Cent
Clients and staff enjoyed some lively baseball and volley ball games. We
had some excellent hitters and some amazing fielding. This year's craft proj-
ects included decorating clay pots and making personalized canvas tote bags.
Clients used their tote bags to bring home some of their shopping treasures from
Charlevoix.
Our campfires are always an important part of our experience and this year
was no exception. In addition to making Some-mores, we also had music at
our bonfires. With Michael Trepeck, our Kadima social worker on guitar, David
Barg on harmonica, and Joel Kaufman on trombone, we all got pleasure from
some great jam sessions.
We had an enjoyable time swimming and canoeing on Lake Charlevoix.
Staff and clients did a speedy rescue when one of the boats tipped over. All the
water-soaked participants had a good laugh, as well as, all of us watching from
shore.
We are indebted to our angels, Steve and Nancy Grand whose generosity
make this trip possible every summer. All in all, it was a terrific experience.
