SUMMER CAMP

Kostanay 08.07.04

  Children's summer camp continues in Kokshetau. Every day brings something new and interesting. Trips, tours, meetings with famous people turn summer vacation to an exciting adventure.

   The camp participants have visited a city picture gallery. A guide took them along the halls to show pictures of Kokshetau artists. The children not only looked at landscapes, portraits and wood engraving, but also met a young artist to see how pictures appear.

   An excursion to the Regional Museum of Local Lore was also very useful. Its exposition has increased considerably as compared to the last year. The children were attracted to the Culture of Kazakhstani People's hall with a stand devoted to the Jewry. 14-year-old Sergey Volochayev told his friends about shofar, tfilin, kippah, Hanukah candles, and mezuzah.

   Tomorrow summer camp members are going to celebrate Shabbat. Their parents and grandparents are also invited. Meanwhile Vladimir Lyahovetsky continues his lectures about the Torah.
