"I Love Ramah Because..." The Tzad Bet Edition!

National Ramah has been running a contest, asking Ramahniks young and old to tell them, in a 15 second video, why they love Camp Ramah! 

At our fall reunion in Palmer, Davey and I challenged the kids to create some videos of their own, that we could send to National Ramah.  Here's what some of the Tzad Bet kids came up with:

"I Love Ramah Because..."

National Ramah has been running a contest asking Ramaniks young and old to tell them in a 15-second video about why they love Camp Ramah.  A few weeks ago, we posted an entry from Ramah NE staff member Elisheva Layman.

At last month's camp reunion in Palmer, Davey and I challenged the attendees to create some short videos of their own.  Here is some of what the kids came up with!

We Love Camp Ramah Because...

National Ramah has begun a challenge in which they are asking Ramahniks to tell everyone, in a 15-second video, how Ramah has influenced your life!

You can send National Ramah your 15-second video clip. Start with "B'Zchut Ramah...." or "I love Ramah because....", and finish in Hebrew or English.  The grand prize winner will receive $100 towards his or her next trip to Israel. Three runners-up will win Ramah fleece sweatshirts.

You can upload your video onto YouTube and email the link to ramah@jtsa.edu or submit your video clip by email to ramah@jtsa.edu. Videos must be in one of the following formats: MPEG, DV, MOV, or MP4.
