Hi everyone and Shana Tova!

Let's remind you of the basics and then we'll give you some more news.

Further info and the application can be found at http://www.facebook.com/l/ecc89;www.orsrui.org under "year round." Or contact our

Program/Housing Update
This year, Hilulim joins Chagigah to celebrate Chagigah's Chai (18th) year. This combination of two great camps is sure to lead to
a most memorable Israeli dance weekend. In addition to tons of dancing, we will have numerous special programs, surprises and
events including a tribute to Tel Aviv's 100th birthday. You can count on this wonderful faculty to create a lot of fun and
excitement on and off the dance floor throughout the weekend.

Regarding housing, there is some good news and some bad news. The good news is that we still have a few semi-private rooms
available on campus in a lovely facility called Nerenberg. It is a new building with nice rooms, a spacious common area, and nice
communal bathrooms down the hall. The bad news is that our semi-private rooms with en-suite bathrooms are now wait listed. But
wait, there is more good news. We still have plenty of space in our dorms/cabins. And, we have opened up a room block at the Lake
Country Inn of Oconomowoc! For those who still want to join us but weren't able to get their preferred accommodation on campus, we
have negotiated a deal at this close-by (5 minute drive), inexpensive motel. Follow this link for further information:
http://www.facebook.com/l/ecc89;www.theunionstation.com/lakecountry/. To make a reservation, call 262-569-9600 and say that you
would like to reserve a room in the Phil Moss/OSRUI room block. Please remember though that you still need to apply to OSRUI (per
the above) and be confirmed for off-site accommodation in advance. Walk-ins are not accepted.

Pre-Camp Party (Thursday, October 15)
We strongly encourage and invite everyone to join us for our traditional pre-camp dance party/workshop which takes place at our
Chicago Thursday night session. Faculty and staff will be with us for what is always a wonderful and exciting night. We will start
at 7:30PM with our usual teaching session for beginners. At 8PM we'll start the workshop with the teachers, followed by open
dancing. The location will be Temple Judea Mizpah, 8610 Niles Center Road, Skokie IL 60076. By the way, if you are coming from
out of town and need home hospitality for Thursday night and/or a ride to camp on Friday, please let Phil know.

Yaron Ben-Simchon
We recently found out that our friend Yaron will not be joining us at Chagigat Hilulim II. We hope he will be with us some time in
the future.
