Core Values:

At GFC, we believe that everything we do is connected to core values that are ever-present in Judaism and in life. We hope that by bringing these values to the forefront of our minds as a full staff, we will be better able to create and maintain a safe, fun, and Jewish environment and community for our campers.

Myself-Hineni: This value pertains to the individual. It reminds us to remember to always look out for ourselves.

Friendship-Reut-: At camp, one of the very first words that comes to everyone’s minds is “friends.” Camp is where we make friends, whether for that summer only or for our lifetime.

Respect-Kavod: A basic life value, and Jewish value, is respecting your peers no matter the differences between you and them. To respect yourself, too, will then allow you to be respectful of those around you. At GFC, we build much of our camp culture on the value and tenant of respect.
