Thank You
This thank you is from all the staff of Camp Chayolei in appreciation of all the campers and their parents who have supported camp.
I would like to make a special mention to those parents who clearly labeled all their sons clothes, making the sorting process so much easier as well as helping to ensure that the campers return home with most of their clothes.
The awards for the best labeled clothes go to.
Bunk beis- The Shwei family
Bunk Daled- The Mayzlish family
Bunk Hey turned ches- The Wall family

Grand Scene
We're very sorry for the dearth of posts over the last few days. But due to an intense and amazing Color War the necessary time to take pics and upload them was not found.
Color War culminated with one of the most brilliant Grand Scenes ever designed. Where the team of Am winded back to their early years as they adorned themselves with diapers and bibs. Meanwhile the WINNING team Melech decided that some new faces were needed and made sure they felt right at home.
With special thanks going to all dedicated and devoted staff who worked tirelessly over the last 5 days to make color war possible.

"The Fear of my First Day..."
With sadness and contrition (by both those who were leaving and those who are staying) we bid farewell to about 10 of our beloved campers.
So to assuage the pain we imported another 40 campers to have the Summer of their lives.

Bog War
Starting Wednesday night, Chayolei was rocked by the most amazing, awesome, exhillerating etc. 2 days a person could hope to experience. Inspiring all involved to elevate themselves to new plains and opened their eyes to new vistas, as the staff dug deep into their reservoirs of talent and campers amazed even themselves at the amount of noise that can be generated.

Visiting day TIPS
Almost all campers receive visitors and those that don't are attended to with the utmost attention by the dedicated staff. But who will comfort those staff who come from a land down under and have no visitors?
