All you ever wanted to know about URJ Camp Coleman-and more!
Come on Sunday, November 9 at 9:00 a.m.
Camp Coleman is the Reform movement's
regional camp that serves congregations
throughout the Southeast. Located
in Cleveland, Georgia in the foothills
of the Appalachian Mountains, summers at
Coleman have enriched the lives of many

cooperation with several national
foundations, is now offering incentive
scholarships to new and veteran campers.
Come and meet the real live Coleman
campers, see the camp DVD and get your
questions answered.
