STARQUEST ROCKED IT! Unbelievable! What an amazing summer we had! In 4 short weeks, camp StarQuest became a home away from home… a place where our campers transformed into rockin’ StarQuest Super Stars! The last week of camp was action-packed! Not only did they perform in an incredible production of THE SPONGEBOB MUSICAL, they also brought the spirit and battled it out in "true camper" style for our Battle of the Stars 2023 color war/Maccabi. I’ve including several videos below of our Battle of the Stars Song Fest, the culmination of our Hollywood Red vs Broadway Blue. Upon the announcement of our winning team this year, Broadway Blue, we all congratulated each other for the camaraderie, sportsmanship, and fun! As always, at StarQuest we concluded with our traditional award ceremony, closing appreciation circle, ice cream, hugs, tears, and so much love! My Camp StarQuest Staff and I have been READ MORE

Trust, Confidence & Accountability I am overwhelmed with how amazing our StarQuest campers are! Their sense of teamwork and loving-kindness towards themselves and one another has really shown through this week. One of the many self-affirming teachable moments we infuse into our StarQuest camp is a daily group affirmation which is randomly chosen by one camper but shared with the entire camp. We start our day off with this tradition along with our award of the day to build the confidence of our inner dialogue and to help us see the light in ourselves and others. This coupled with our overall camp culture is creating our StarQuest magic! The trust they are building in themselves and each other has boosted everyone’s confidence to try new things, make new friends, take creative risks, and has given them the freedom to have fun!

Finding strength with resilience In true camp StarQuest style, we are making lemonade when given some lemons! One of the greatest lessons to learn no matter what the age is that we can’t control what life throws our way, but we can control our reaction to it. So, despite some early on in the week setbacks due to COVID we kept moving and grooving and worked together as a camp family. And what a great week we had! And a special shout out to you, our parents. Thank you for your understanding and support. Your children’s well-being, health, and safety are our priority. The actual performance and the rest... is all gravy. It’s the journey and the lessons learned that matter most. I have always said, art is the vehicle we use to teach life lessons and this summer is no different. So, thank you. READ MORE
