Boker Tov! It is 7:30 a.m. here at
WCBM 9-10 on your a.m. dial-
Cleveland. At this time we always
give you the Hebrew word for the
day Today’s word is ni-ka-yon,
meaning clean-up. Be sure to use it
and do it. Waiters call is in fifteen
minutes, so let’s get moving. Hot
waffles with whipped cream and
strawberries will be featured at
breakfast this morning—so be
there. This is Jed Mescon, your
morning deejay, taking requests on
line 26. Here’s a special request
going out to the Nitzanim campers
of Unit One as they set out to
continue building their kibbutz,
(music).
When you go to breakfast this
morning in the Cheder Ochel be
sure to thank Mark Balser and his
kitchen staff for the outstanding
Chuck Wagon Dinner last night.
That fried chicken sure was
scrumptuous and the potato salad
and cole slaw were outstanding.
How about that watermelon! Just
thinking about that meal makes my
mouth water. Speaking of water,
the forecast is sunny with a high of
89° so get ready for another Camp
Barney Medintz day—and be
ready to cool off at free swim.
I know all of you enjoyed last
night’s camp-wide campfire as
much as I did. Those specialists
sure are something: ceramics,
horseback, skiing, tennis, nature,
Judaics, leather, sailing, canoeing,
music, and dance—just to name a
few. Don’t forget a Barney
happening tonight at 6:20 p.m. in
the Moadon, try outs for Saturday
night’s Kaleidoscope, our multi-
media talent show, will take place
at this time. Among last week’s
outstanding participants were
Keith Ullman, Suzi Ginsburg,
Sheri Wender, Miriam Notrica,
and Lisa Slavin. Skits, singing,
dancing, piano playing, whatever
your talent, come and audition.
We’ll provide the audience, you
provide the entertainment. And
speaking of entertainment, here’s
an entertaining tune, (music).
We’re coming up to fifteen
minutes before the hour. You
should be making your beds
(remember the Hebrew word for
the day is ni-ka-yon—clean-up)
and getting dressed. So, if you are
not out of bed yet, you’re late.
Wandering around camp last
night, I saw the Chalutzim
campers scurrying about during
their Massada Maccabiah —
experiencing many aspects of
Massada through games as well as
athletic and artistic events. On the
other end of the ballfield I saw the
Nitzanim campers involved in new
games such as the lap game and
Knots. I got tied up there for a
while with Brad Reiman, Roberta
Epstein, and Rachel Alterman.
From my view from down here
in the Misrod (office—remember
that was the word for the day of
Monday), I sec the waiters drifting
into the Cheder Ochel, so if you
have not sent your waiter yet, do so
immediately. During second
period today WCBM will be
broadcasting a special program
through the courtesy of the
Giborim chug (yesterday’s word
meaning dimensions or interest
group). Be sure to tune in 9-10 on
your dial at 10:20 this morning.
Our roving reporter Neal the K will
be checking out special programs
and other Chugim and will give us
an afternoon special report,
(music)
We have progressed right up to
the 8 o’clock hour, so, this is
Jed Mescon signing off until ni-ka-
yon at WCBM 9-10 Cleveland.
Remember this special station was
dedicated by the family and friends
of Judy Robbins—in her loving
memory, (fade-out)
Day camp goes international
The last place you would expect
it, and the last place you would
notice it, is AJECOMCE Day
Camp. Nonetheless, AJECOMCE
has become cosmopolitan.
J'he word cosmopolitan can
mean many things, but to
AJECOMCE campers it has a
particular definition — “interna
tional."
This summer, more than any
other, AJECOMCE is a place
where campers of different
nationalities are swimming, eating,
and playing together. There are
two Iranian-born campers Cindy
Horesch *and Eli Esagh-Zadeh,
who bring to camp not only their
wide smiles, but also some
memories of political riots near
home. There are several Russian-
born campers, ranging in age from
five to 13.
To make things a little easier for
our Russian campers, the staff of
the camp also has some Russian
speaking counselors, like Jimmy
Gzinzayd in the Ketantanim Unit
and Lyuba Konopasek at
Horseback. Also, an English
language instructor comes to camp
each day in a program sponsored
by the Bureau of Jewish Education
to help the Russian campers
communicate better with their
peers.
There are also some campers
who speak English a bit differently
than Atlantans because they are
recent immigrants from South
Africa. There is one family with
three South African natives at
AJECOMCE Paul, Roger, and
Cathy Frysh
The State of Israel is also
represented by a contingency of
campers and four counselors who
are at AJECOMCE on a Jewish
Federation sponsored program.
One of the counselors, Joel
Danino, has returned to
AJECOMCE for a second
summer. “Since this is my second
summer here,” he said, “I am
trying to have more of an influence
on the entire program by
introducing special Israeli
campcrafts, activity at campsites.
Israeli games and songs. We want
to arouse the camper’s interest in
Israel and that job has been made
easier since there are four Israeli
counselors in camp. My main
purpose for wanting to be in camp
is to share the flavor of Israel with
the children."
