Shemesh is the can’t-miss residential summer camp for RSY-Netzer!  Shemesh is a chance for your child to spend two weeks (or 7 nights if they are on Briyah, 10 nights if they are on Shachar) in a Reform community. On each camp there are a range of fun activities to join in with, as well as space to chill out and relax!

We are really hoping to be able to see all of our chanichim (participants) on camp this summer and are working hard to try to make Shemesh happen in a safe way, whilst remaining as fun and inspirational as ever. We will continue to provide updates whenever possible about Shemesh as the current situation evolves.
