This will absolutely be an annual camp for our children and we are so grateful that it is available in Novato ! " - Jessielyn Jackson, CGI Mom

"Dear Menachem and Adina,  Thank you so much for offering your fun, wholesome and active summer camp for the community!  Having grown up in Novato, I didn't have a Jewish community or summer camp to go to. It is especially moving to send my children to Camp Gan Israel in Novato. My 8 and 12 year old children loved the activities, the educational fun and the experience they gained by hearing music, learning about reptiles, working on art projects while incorporating Hebrew and Judaism. The counselors were wonderful as well! " -  Miriam Menkin, CGI Mom
