“The Hymans have been part of Ramah California since the Orchid farm in days of yore. Our 99-year-old family patriarch, Herb, still smiles at the thought of Ramah and its place in our history. Our family has served over the years in many different capacities, including maintenance staff, madrichim (counselors) and rosh edah (unit head). Many Hyman cousins have walked the hill, shared the same color for maccabiah and passed the havdallah candle.”

“Camp Ramah in California is easily the happiest place on Earth. It’s where I met my husbais thnd, where I found my closest friends, where I  connected to my cousins who were otherwise scattered across the country, and where  I cemented my strong Jewish identity. As the  mother of three boys, the oldest of whom is in kindergarten, I cannot WAIT to send my boys to Ramah, a place they have already grown to love.”
