The first day of Kayitz (summer) 2021 was more exciting than ever! After a 1 year break, the campers were thrilled to come to Camp Ramah in the Berkshires, meet their friends (and new buddies) and enjoy their summer. As always, Kol Ramah aired the event on a special 4 hour show, including interviews with camp director, Rabbi Ethan Linden, camp staff, Israeli Mishlachat and of course - lots of happy campers! This year, Kol Ramah has a brand new mobile studio, and our own Amy Erlanger used it to capture the exciting first moments of the summer. Yaniv Morozovsky and Mitch Mernick were in the studio, talking to special guests from the Ramah family, calling in from all over the USA, and as always, playing the best Israeli music - new and old.
