What’s going on with the start of camp? All sorts or rumors flying around. That it’s not ready, they are moving to a hotel instead… anyone know what’s really happening?

I really feel bad for the Camp Malka staff, I've had amazing experiences there in the past.
But right now, they need to communicate better and let us know what the story is.

Pushing off camp due to "the new grounds not being ready" is unacceptable.
Switching to a hotel without a timeline or any more information is unacceptable.

They need to be transparent right now. They need to say the problem is ABC and w are working on it by doing XYZ. Camp is a fortune.

Pushing it off was beyond an "inconvenience" as they called it and very upsetting for the girls. This last minute change is really really upsetting.

Im sure the camp owners feel horrible and are working day and night to do what they can. At the same time the parents and campers are left frustrated. I hope they have a good time in the hotel. Im sure it can be fun and a different type of experience.

They need to COMMUNICATE.

Fun and different, maybe. Would you choose to spend $3000 on this experience?

They were such a successful camp and it wasn't cheap. Why would they sell?

They bought new grounds and they're apparently still under construction.

Which hotel/ motel did they take them to??
How in the world does that even work, in terms of a kosher kitchen, eiruv, grounds, etc...

New grounds didnt get their certification of occupancy yet. No running water. Staff slept in the hotel last night. 3 in a bed in one room since there was a bug on the other bed and blood mattresses.... this sounds dysfunctional
