CGI Chai, the highly anticipated Lubavitch girls’ overnight camp set to officially launch in Summer 5785-2025, has announced the lease of stunning temporary grounds for the upcoming summer.

This summer promises to be an unforgettable experience in a space designed for both fun and inspiration.
Directed by former CGI United leadership, Malka Aisenbach and Geula Gniwisch, teen director Mrs. Chaya Mushka Drookman, and along with many beloved administrative staff members, Gan Yisroel Chai is poised to set a new standard for overnight camps.
