By Barbara Simon This segment of the In-Depth Series has talked about what Camp Esther K. Newman can provide a child, what activities it offers, what campers and counselors feel about their time at Camp Esther K. Now let's see what the camp property itself offers the community, and what more Omahans might enjoy if all the future "wishes" for camp come true. As a "community center-in-the-woods", the Camp property offers a unique setting for family camping that might be Jewish Community Center or synagogue-sponsored. It also offers a itoiiohtfni soot for Shabbat retreats, educational seminars and business "think-tanks." Some Jewish and many non-Jewish groups use the facility now, renting the grounds, cabins and the services of kitchen and staff for anywhere from a daytotwo weeks. Over $43,000 a year comes into the Camp from these rentals—almost one half of Its umnn mnnffi • It makes good sense, therefore, says Camp Director Bob Litvak, to Improve the camp facilities to attract even more groups and also to allow even more of these weekend and weeklong spiritual and educational activities. The fact Is, says Litvak, there is no other conference center within 500 miles of Omaha which has the quality of facilities and services that Esther K. provides: Good food, well-supervised recreation, the director's assistance in designing programs and meetings, maintenance and kitchen staffs and cabins and staff cabins in a beautiful setting away from telephones and traf Uc. Many groups who rent the camp return year after year. For example, School District 66 conducts a-4wo-weck '.'outdoor «ducation" program at Esther K. during the Spring J £ l fall for District 66 sixth graders. Children In small groupTBtody those subjects that can best be taught outdoors: using a compass, studying plants and ponds, fossils and Insects; animal tracking, reptile and small animal study, astronomy, etc. The Nebraska Independent Intertribal Development Council sponsored a youth leadership seminar this year- for Indian youth from three Nebraska reservations. And B'nai Brith Youth Organization held a five-day teen leadership conclave. Additionally, the Bureau of Jewish Education from, Des Moines has held an educational session for teenagers from Des Moines who were going to Isreael, and many Omaha-area church groups rent the campsite for weekend retreats for study and prayer. Lincoln's Tifereth Israel Synagogue has a yearly Shabbat family weekend at Camp. It brings In outstanding national speakers and educators to lead discussion sessions. The presence of adults at a camp built for children has certain problems. Tor instance, one Omaha group of middle-aged persons found the small beds simply too uncomfortable. The "bed problem" suggests one of many changes the Camp must (Continued on Page 6)

"While our group recommended a sliding fee schedule which Is based on the full cost of service, no one would be denied service because of inability to pay," Peters explained. The United Way board removed all restrictions placed on the final six months' allocations for the JPS. The 1976 allocation for the Jewish Family Service was $11,100.
One of the purposes of this new program, which is sponsored by the Omaha Jewish Federation Coordinating Committee on Aging, istoreach older adults who do not attend programs at the
Jewish Community Center, said CCOA Chairman Mary Fellman. The success of this evidenced by the appearance of many new faces as well as regular members of the JCC older adult groups. Mollie Delman, who Is director of the older adult programs at the JCC and the new Thursday programs, said that there Is no reason for any older adult to stay home. "We're there and there Is something for you. We are open to suggestions for additional activities and programs. Let us know what your needs are and we will do our best to fill then:," she said. Mrs. Delman said that reservations are needed for the $1 lunch and may be made by calling the JCC, 3344200. The next program Is scheduled for Thursday, June, 10a.m.-4p.m.

In Depth: Taking A Look Into The Future (ContinuedfromPage2) make if It wishes to become a well-used community facility. s s . »n»iM ho tn mska tha cabins md grounds usueful in the winter—to "winterize" it. Presently, the camp is open only from May to October. Imagine how much more activity and use the camp could have if it were available the other six months of the year! Litvak estimates that $150,000 would afford most of the following <he reminds us that the camp represents a $450,000$500,000 investment): — Insulation of the water system to keep the pipes from freezing and-or a new insulated well system buried below the freeze-line; — development of'new roads; grading, widening and surfacing existing roads; • — snow moving equipment; — a year-round maintenance person with a residence on Camp property; ' - — the heating end Insulating of eight cabins, plus a staff cabin, the office and showers'(with this plan CO people could be ac-eoaaodatsd); . • ... .. . — equipment for winter recreation—cross-country' skis, toboggans, ice fishing and skating—and perhaps adding winter outdoor survival gear. . Litvak mentions that the budget has never allowed the hiring . of a year-round maintenence person. The cabins and grounds nave suffered over the years because of this. Last year, extensive repairs were needed on the screens and porches of the cabins, he s a i l On-going upkeep would cut costs, he suggested. What additional improvements might be made to the property to further enhance it? Top priority on Camp Chairman Dik Welner's list is "winterizing" to increase rental use and ultimately to make the ' camp self-sustaining. The Camp should purchase sturdy, fullsized beds for adults, he adds. BobNewman, a former Camp chairman, would like to see nsw staff buildings to attract top-notch coaches and teachers to summer Jobs there. Expanded staff cabins would allow them to bringthelrfamilies. • He, too, mentions "winterizing" and also extensive planting of shrubs and evergreens, partly for erosion control and partly to help create a sheltered, "piney woods" feeling, especially around the lake. Important to Newman also is rebuilding the stable and corral in a location away from the present main entrance road site.
He further proposes redesigning the entrance road and parking areas, so that the major green, open space of the camp—the athletic field and grounds around the dining hall—is free from parked vehicles and the traffic. He says campers ana visitors should really feel they are away from the outside world when they're at camp! Many people are credited with "bettering" this excellent facility over the years, including Sherman Poska, the camp's first director, who helped conceive, design and program the camp (1661-1973); Bob Newman and the Newman family, for their financial and organizational support, and Bob Litvak and Dik Werner. An enthusiastic member of the present Camp Committee, Barbara Hurwitz, who was a counselor the first summer in 1963, says, "Bob has just done wonders for that place in the last few years—he's so terif f ic!" She adds: "I just can't wait to send my kids." ' Little kids, middle-size kids and grown-up "kids" — all can enjoy and profit from healthy, outdoor Jewish living in our harried times. Hurrah for Camp! Long may she provide fun, satisfaction and good growth experiences for our children i The following are the Camp Esther K.
