All-School Retreat at Camp Chi 2025

ICJA’s All-School Retreat brought the entire school together for two wonderful days at Camp Chi.

On Wednesday, September 17, students davened and ate breakfast at school before boarding busses to Camp Chi in Wisconsin. There, students engaged in incredible learning sessions with our teachers and Mechanchim, enjoyed the camp’s wonderful amenities including beautiful playing fields and gym, and spent time hanging out with friends and teachers, enjoying the beautiful weather.

Outings included visits to Knuckleheads arcade, boating, and a late night visit to a water park. Some highlights of Retreat were the incredible musical Selichot for boys and for girls, our our nighttime Mishmar, and fabulous musical bonfire parties for upperclassmen.
