Kesher Program Director Susan Gottesman seeks ASL interpreters for Camp Ramah which is located in northeast PA. She states that they are the only camping experience for the Jewish Deaf community and are seeking interpreters. “We have a wonderful staff of hearing and deaf young and older adults.

In addition, because we function within a hearing camp, we need ASL interpreters to work with us as well. For both programs, interpreting includes working with program participants and staff, as well as hearing Ramah staff people. Settings range from pool-side and gymnasium to staff meetings and every thing in between at camp. Everyone is very friendly and team work is a MUST. It’s a fun place to be for a week or two – nice facilities and beautiful surroundings.” There are two sessions: Kesher Family Camp – for Jewish families with Deaf members, June 22 – July 2, and Kesher Camper Program for Deaf campers ages 10 -14, July 7 19th. Susan can be contacted at [email protected].
