Camp Adjusts to Life Away From Parent
This will be Camp JCA Shalom\’s first summer away from home. For the first time in its 54-year history, the Malibu camp is independent, having broken away from the Jewish Community Centers of Greater Los Angeles (JCCGLA) in January.
Life after the centers crisis hasn\’t been easy for The Shalom Institute: Camp and Conference Center, and now officials are learning how to raise the bulk of the camp\’s $2.3 million budget.
\”Everything is great but we need support,\” said Bill Kaplan, executive director of the Shalom Institute, which runs Camp JCA Shalom.
