Shalom all, my name is David Reinhart. I’m 23 years old and am excited to be back at camp for one last summer as Anaf Unit Head. I was born in Cedar Rapids, IA but moved, before I was two, to Louisville, KY. Then, just before my Bar Mitzvah, I moved to Buffalo Grove, IL where my family still lives. For the past five years, I’ve lived in Ann Arbor, MI where I attended the University of Michigan and graduated last year with a B.S. in Anthropology with a focus in evolution. This fall I am beginning the next stage in my life and will be moving to Minneapolis, MN where I will attend the University of Minnesota Law School.

This summer is my sixth year on staff and just the last stage in what has been an incredible 18 years. I began at GUCI in 1996 as a so called “staff brat” while my mom was on Top Deck as Project Director. Then from 1998 to 2007, I went through Garin, Shoresh, Gezah, Anaf, GUCI’s Israel trip, and Avodah. In 2008, I started on staff as a Machonik and progressed to Senior Staff, Sports Specialist, Anaf Head Counselor, and, for the last two years, an Avodah Unit Head. I’m glad that this summer I have the new challenge of being Anaf Unit Head.
