What an exciting day in machane as teams began to coalesce and campers got really into Maccabiah. While many campers were busy in sports competions throughout the day, others were busy preparing and practicing for the stomp band, working on the banner, creating creative team cheers, preparing an original song, scoring points in chinuch or decorating the chadar ochel. There's a broad range of ways to help the team, enabling different types of children to shine. Click on any of the images to see more pictures from color war.

Tonight was Team Yehoshua's (blue) turn to decorate the Chadar Ochel and as you can see, their decorations tied into the story of the miraculous shemesh b'givon battle. Scroll through the pictures to feel the energy and spirit.

Enjoy as we take you behind the scenes for a sneak peak at the stomp bands in practice (but don't let the cat out - they're not being performed until later tonight...) Scroll through the images and enjoy the videos as well.
