Today after lunch, we made our way into the social hall for a very special and very rare treat...Lipa Shmeltzer in concert!! This very concert truly was one-of-a-kind in Simcha concert history! Lipa, accompanied by new up and comers Shloimie Gertner and Benny Webber sang many of our favorite songs (both fast and slow), including his new popular "Hentelach" and even sang Simcha's rendition "We are high on Tamiflu"!
Throughout the concert, the singing, dancing and cheering never ceased. Rachel R. said "the concert was awesome!" Sorelle thought "it was geshmak!" Remarked Chani K. "I love Lipa!"

Simcha Welcomes a New Week!
Gut Vuch!
We ask for a week of joy and success, a week of health and happiness. . .
These are the words we chant together as we say goodbye to the week that's past and welcome in the days ahead.
A few words now about what's happened. Today, we enjoyed many Shabbos activities. Shabbos play with Mrs. K., choir with our talented speakers, inspirational talks by our campers, Bingo, Storytelling, canteen. Now about that canteen. As a part-time canteen staffer, I see candy consumption from the other side of the window. Let's just say that our campers know good nosh when they see it. :) But moving right along, the Shabbos afternoon at camp is an experience that many campers look forward to all year long.
As much as we go into Shabbos with singing, we come out of it with even more musical celebretion. Lively dancing and a buffet (melave malka) usher in the new week with an upbeat tempo. Tonight, Miri Greenberg, an exceptionally talented staff member, and the person behind CSS's recording studio, led a concert. She also taught us a new song and we all joined in for a wonderful night.
Check back in the morning for more updates.

From WCSS News in Gley Spey, Party City, I'm Leah. In today's top story headlines, Camp Simcha sang and danced to an exhilarating concert by Baruch Levine.
Levine sang the United States National Anthem. In honor of Canada Day, he also performed the Canadian National Anthem.
Happy Birthday, it's someone's birthday, Happy Birthday to you!

Shloime Dachs Concert !
It's Erev Shabbos and there's just enough time to fit in ... a concert ?! Surprise, Camp Simcha Special, Shloime Dachs is here for the first concert of the summer.
Disco lights on overhead, the social hall was shaking underneath our feet from the frenzied dancing. In Simcha spirit, the concert was a perfect prelude to Shabbos. Many campers were able to come out of their wheelchairs and dance with their counselors in a circle on on their counselor's shoulders. Everyone sang up a storm -- literally. It rained outside, but we barely noticed. Bracha sang us a solo. We love Shloime in Camp Simcha Special. As Shloime Dachs said, "Thank you so much. I'm so glad to be back here in Camp Simcha Special. . . I was so happy that I came."
