Inspired by the Brotherhood Work Weekend that has been going on for decades, several years ago the first Women’s Work Weekend was created! In partnership with the Women of Reform Judaism (WRJ) Heartland District, camp moms, grandmothers, camper and staff alumni and all friends of GUCI gather for a weekend of fun, meaningful work to help prepare camp for summer.
We do incredibly valued projects such as preparing our garden for the summer, painting and organizing around camp and getting our camp looking beautiful!
While we work hard, we also play hard and partake in a beautiful weekend with delicious food and drinks, Shabbat, music and a special Saturday night social activity!
