We went with our school Milton Gottesman Jewish Day School. The event Camp Milton was beautifully well planned and thought out from the beautiful surroundings, the art and crafts center, the campfire, zip lining, the climb wall, the kosher meals which included vegan/gluten free options, and other activities.

The event Camp Milton was beautifully well planned and thought out from the beautiful surroundings, the art and crafts center, the campfire, zip lining, the climb wall, the kosher meals which included vegan/gluten free options, and other activities. They also have summer camp with various options. I even want our Jewish Girl Scout troop with other Jewish Girl Scout troops to come here every year. It is a wonderful idea that I hope becomes a reality. There wasn’t never a dull moment where there wasn’t nothing to do. Matter of fact there was so much to do that we couldn’t do everything. I heard from many other families that the lake was beautiful as well as the kickball field. There were tennis courts and basketball courts. I could go on and on. I am really glad we came and thanks to Rabbj Matt and his wife Julie we were able to make it.
