CGI Parksville Reunites!
To begin the evening the crowd was addressed by camps executive directer Rabbi Avraham Shemtov who shared words of inspiration and encouragement
Following dinner the lights were dimmed and the crowd was treated to a professionally edited video with unique footage briefly recapping all that was done this past summer.
Afterwards, an exciting and original entertainer hired especially for the reunion treated the crowd to a captivating show that included both magic and mentalist tricks.
The crowd then joined together in singing favorite songs from camp led by the head staff, including the original songs from this past summer. Those in the room were truly able to feel the warmth, unity and friendship of camp.
Raffles were then drawn with many prizes for those in attendance to win.
As the evening came to a close, those gathered in the room lined up to receive the newly printed journal from the summer as well as a custom made scarf as a souvenir.
We were truly able to see how Gan Yisroel has an everlasting impact on all campers. We are sure that this unity brings the Rebbe much Nachas and we look forward to the upcoming summer swiftly approaching.
Stay tuned to register for the *upcoming summer of 5778 – 2018*, both for the *main camp* and the very popular and anticipated *Bar Mitzvah Division (BMD)*.

Grand Banquet
As Gan Yisroel came to a close the whole camp partook in a very emotional and inspiring banquet where all the awards of the summer were given out. There was singing and crying as campers and staff reminisced about the amazing times had together this summer. As the banquet came to an end the campers retired to their bunkhouses for the last lights out of Gan Yisroel 5777.
