Mosaic Outdoor Club Camping At Markham Park

By Editor • Dec 12th, 2010 • Category: news

Mosaic Outdoor Club of South Florida, a Jewish club named after Moses, “the original outdoor Jew,” has announced upcoming events for members and nonmembers. Gentiles are welcome to participate.

On Dec. 24 is a campout at Markham Park in Sunrise. Attendees should arrive after 3 p.m. on the Friday. A barbecue dinner will be served at about 6 p.m. and afterward people will gather around the campfire for Shabbat songs, games, singing and the traditional Mosaic s’mores.

At dark there will be an organized hike without flashlights and maybe even some caroling in honor of participating Christians.

Bathrooms and showers are available so novice campers don’t need to feel intimidated by the outdoors experience, although there is no electricity. Campers are encouraged to bring their own tents, sleeping bags and other gear, but those who need gear can contact Jodi Gast at 954-829-3160.

On Dec. 25 campers can experience other activities at Markham, such as biking, hiking, volleyball, swimming and rollerblading.

The cost is $17 for Mosaic members and $22 for nonmembers. Children under 5 are free; kids 6 to 17 need to pay $11. Costs include camping fees, dinner and breakfast for campers on Dec. 25. There will be no difference in price for those who come on Dec. 24 but do not sleep over.

Reservations to Gast are required because camping space is limited.
