Lifelong Camp Connections: Danya Ravid and Noah Singer
Danya and Noah met at Camp Grossman and never
really left! They started as campers, from Negev and
Carmel to Kinneret, growing up together through
bunk life, endless laughs, and unforgettable summer
days. Twenty years later, their camp friends are still
their best friends and the people they continue to
share their lives with. Noah shares, “I had fun the
whole time, from being a 7-year-old camper to a
21-year-old counselor. I wouldn’t be the person
I am today without camp.” Danya started at just
4 years old in Carmel Bunk 1. “Camp is home,”
she said. “It shaped my friendships, it shaped
what I now do for work, and I’m so grateful to
call this place a second home.” After 23
summers, camp even inspired her career
in psychology and working with kids.
And those camp friendships? They’ve continued to
stand the test of time. Danya and Noah’s group
of friends has stayed together through the years
as they’ve grown up and celebrated life milestones,
even standing beside each other as bridesmaids at
a camp friend’s wedding! Danya and Noah are a
testament to the fact that friendships at Camp
Grossman aren’t just for the summer — they’re for life!
