The Head Staff of Camp Gan Yisroel Parksville NY recently met with the Camp Director, to discuss plans for the upcoming summer.
They were joined by Executive Director Rabbi Avrohom Shemtov, who shared words of inspiration, expounding on the Rebbe’s ideal in creating Camp Gan Yisroel.
Rabbi Shemtov shared with the staff, the Rebbe’s vision for a Camp that not only effects positive change in the children during the summer, but has a lasting impact throughout the year.
Camp Director Rabbi Yossi Futerfas and returning Head Counselor Rabbi Nachman Dov Wichnin were on hand to help with curriculum building and program planning.
“Gan Yisroel Elite”, a fun, mission oriented incentive program, which was an amazing success last summer will be returning to camp. In addition an innovative Davening Program was created to further motivate growth among the campers.
Thoughts and ideas were shared for more amazing innovative programs that will be implemented in camp this summer, promising to make this year more exciting than ever before.

Yossi Dalfin is truly the bestHead Councler out there, How lucky is CGI Parksville for having him as their head councler.
I don’t know anyone on this staff but if you say it’s top notch I believe you! I do know that cgi parksville was absolutely the best last year! They gave those kids the time of their lives! My son went for the first time last year for one month and did not want to come home! Yashar koach to the staff!
This guy just GETS IT! GREAT CHOICE!
Best thing that happened to CGI NY since 1955!
Rabbi Futerfas rocks!

Gan Yisroel is so lucky to have Shalom. So well rounded and capable – there’s no one like Shalom!
Yossi Dalfin is truly the best!
The campers are lucky to have such a good role model!
Keep on inspiring the Rebbe’s children!
WELL SAID!!!
That I know most of these guys, and I sincerely think that this will be the best summer Parksville will experience, if not ever, than in a very long time. They’re mentshen, they’re put together, they’re Chassidish, and I really commend whoever put together this head staff. (I’m not going to be in camp, so I truly mean and say all of this objectively, I’m not trying to sell anyone a boat.) I wish everyone involved, including all of the dear staff, a healthy and successful summer which will truly make its founder proud.
