Over the next few months we will be adding a
number of pictures and other interesting items that we had saved from our
camp days. We are also asking that anyone who had attended camp back then

Yes it’s Me …. LanceZ.. I have finally emerged after years of living as
a fugitive on the run since that infamous day back in 1954 during silent
meal, when I caused the loudest noise ever to have been heard on the
camp grounds and beyond. As a result, I single handed lost the color war
for the white team, causing more points to be deducted in one single
activity than all the events combined for the entire color war of that
year. I have waited all these long and lonely years until most of my
team mates have either gotten to old to remember, or passed away.
Therefore, I now feel it is safe for me to come out of hiding. My only
hope is that anyone who still has any recollection of this was on the
Blue Team. That being said, drop me an email and let me know what
you remember about those days and I’ll be happy to get back to you. If
you were on the white team … forget about it!
Do you know who won Color
War in "48"? Looks like the white team was a little short on lyrics.
Hi, I'm Lance Zeaman and I went to Camp Sholom
from 1944 to 1954. Did you know me? I would love to hear from you. LanceZ@soundsofphilly.com
Hi, I'm Beryl Kravitz and I'm Lance's
sister. As hard as that was on me, I still managed to have a great time
at Camp Sholom. Let me hear from you. How23ber@aol.com
This is the way we remember it. Let us know if you think it's correct
