Muslim Summer Camp First Day: June 26, 2013

Alhamdullilah! We did it, the launch of 2013 Muslim Summer Camp. We started mid-week and have a total number of ten campers, two volunteer youth counselors, a college intern and three teachers. As always, we ARE so looking forward to many fun adventures, friendships and learning experiences. Our curriculum this year centers around Umar (r.a) and his second caliphate; scientific knowledge around Allah's creations of "Animals with Tails, Wings and Fins." We will also be having special Ramadan programing during camp. Additional Islamic enrichment is offered after camp, from 1pm - 3pm with Arabic Reading and Qur'anic Memorization. We invite you to follow us in our upcoming explorations and adventures...Peace!

Appeal from parent of Muslim Summer Camper

From: Ameena Jandali Date: February 7, 2013, 12:16:45 PM PST To: amilanet@yahoogroups.com Subject: [AMILAnet] Alameda Summer Camp Salams: I am writing about a project that is near and dear to my heart as I witnessed first hand what it did for my son in gently shaping his Islamic identity in a fun and loving manner. This camp is also unique in that it offers an affordable and enriching Islamic experience to children who otherwise would not have this opportunity. Last year, they had to cancel due to lack of funds. Please help to insure that the camp will continue this year by learning more about it, informing others, and making any contribution, no matter how small to support it.
