Zionist Youth Groups Winter Camps 2013
The Zionist Council of Victoria supports the Zionist Youth Council (ZYC) and the individual youth movements in providing winter activities.
Twice a year, youth movements across Australia gather at campsites across rural Australia on their Winter and Summer Camps. This year in July, each Zionist youth movement will be embark on their Winter camps of about 3-7 days each.
Camps are the pivotal experiences in the youth movement calendars. They allow the participants to be in a well-supervised and structured environment and enjoy Jewish and Zionist orientated activities run for them by experienced youth movement leaders. Many of the youth leaders who have been to Israel on an Israel Program and have been educated on youth leadership and prepare extensively for activities for the participants.
While youth movements run activities regularly, camps are seen as the best place for participants to understand how the movements operate and also to experience an intense but fun atmosphere with participants their own age.
