CGI NY Visits Crown Heights for Chof Av
In what has become a longstanding tradition, the campers of Gan Israel of Parksville, NY make their way to Crown Heights in honor of Chof Av, the day of the Yohrtziet of Reb Levi Yitzchok, the Rebbes father. (photos by Meir Elfasi – Shturem.net)
In the years before Gimmel Tammuz the campers enjoyed a special attention for the rebbe and would come in from camp to partake in the Farbrengen that was held in 770.
This year the camp made its first stop at the Ohel where campers and staff members got to read a pan and recite the Maaneh Lashon, and from there they made their way to 770 where they Davened Mincha, recited the 12 Pesukim and sang camp songs.
