CAMPS
The Scholarship Fund is also used to provide interest free loans to those students
desiring to attend an approved Jewish sleep away camp for the summer (one where
Sabbath and kashrut are observed and Services are conducted on a regular basis) or to
supplement the Israel scholarship. The maximum loan is currently $1500 and must be
paid back within 18 months. Students may do so in several ways: 1) from money
earned from their tutoring;
2) money from family or work outside the synagogue; 3) by reading Torah on Shabbat
and/or holidays. The Rabbi will deduct $30 from the amount owed for each aliyah that is
chanted. Students are expected to learn all aliyot on their own and may rehearse them
with the Rabbi prior to the Shabbat or holiday on which they are reading. Students who
wish to earn more than the $1000 scholarship toward their trips to Israel may do so by
reading Torah and will be paid at the same rate.
