Our highlight of the year is just around the corner! Registration ends on 15 June.

Summer is almost here and so is our Summer Machane 2025! From 19 to 29 August, we’ll be spending 10 great days at a beautiful campsite in the north of Berlin, surrounded by nature.

Look forward to team spirit, outdoor adventures, creative workshops, a classic Shomrim*ot atmosphere and cool evening programmes.

For children aged 8 to 9, we also offer the „Machanito“ from 19 to 24 August – a shorter version of the camp.

The activity year is almost over and we want to celebrate the beginning of summer with all of you! We are happy to continue the old-new tradition of a summer party for our whole community and all volunteers. The summer party will take place in Berlin-Friedrichshain (10245 Berlin) and is open to all registered chanichim*ot and their families as well as all chanichim*ot who have registered for the summer machane.
