Take my kid away from his computer? Make him live in a tent and do chores every day? Give all instructions in Hebrew and take away his access to pork? A recipe for torture under normal circumstances, but at Camp Tavor my high-maintenance surly teenager is happy. So five stars for this quirky, Kibbutz-y, socialist, Zionist, humanist(i.e. not particularly religious) Jewish summer camp.
The camp is run entirely by the college-age counselors, in fact there are only two actual adults(the camp director and the camp nurse) in attendance. Surprisingly, it works. I only wish there was an Alte-kakker(old geezer) tent for me.
