The head staff at Camp Gan Israel in Parksville, NY, came up with an incentive that has campers davening beautifully and strengthening their chassidishkeit.
A uniquely designed calendar for the coming Hebrew year of 5772 has the campers eagerly collecting photos of the Rebbe to fill it.
On each page of the calendar, there are spaces for pictures of the Rebbe which correspond to that day.
Each month has photos of the Rebbe corresponding to the special dates that appear in them – Jewish Yomim Tovim and special chassidic dates.
Davening, learning, and playing in a good manner earn the campers the chance to be awarded the photos with stickers which they apply to the calendar.
At the end of the summer, campers will be taking their calendar home for year-round inspiration.

I’m not shocked that Raphi pulled this off, he is the HEAD Head counselor of CGI!
he has had this idea for years and all laughed and said it cannot happen, and he proved them all wrong and pulled off this masterpiece.
Soon TH and all the Mosdos are going to come running after it.
