Cornerstone Fellowship

Counselors are the “cornerstones” of their camps, making significant contributions to the camp program. The Cornerstone Fellowship, made possible by the generosity of the AVI CHAI Foundation, promotes Jewish culture change at camp by offering Jewish educational training to exemplary returning bunk staff and professional development to camp leaders.

Now in its ninth year, the program empowers counselors to play a larger creative role in Jewish programming and employs leading experiential Jewish educators to deliver a cutting-edge training experience at a four-day seminar. Cornerstone also offers an important professional development opportunity for senior camp staff who will supervise counselors' progress throughout the program. Additional support will be provided to camps as they implement the program through ongoing consultation.

The 2012 Cornerstone Seminar will take place on May 21-24, 2012, at Capital Camps in Waynsboro, PA.
