Camp Chi is a Jewish summer camp in Lake Delton, Wisconsin.[1] Chi caters mainly for Jewish children, grades 4 to 11. The camp is located on Blass Lake next to Perlstein Retreat Center.

History

{{Expand section|date=December 2009}}

Chi was founded in 1921 as the Chicago Hebrew Institute by the Jewish Community Centers of Chicago.[2] In the 1940s and beyond, the camp was supported by fundraising efforts by the Jewish Auxiliary[3] and the Institute Woman's Club via luncheons.[4]

In the 1950s, the camp had a summer population of 1500 children between the ages of 5 and 16,[5] and it provided for free summer events and trips to Jewish elderly.[6][7] It moved to its present site in Lake Delton, Wisconsin in 1957 and became a co-ed camp. The 600 acre facility features summer cabins, two pools, tennis courts, a horseback riding stable, athletic fields, a large winterized gymnasium facility, a year-round conference center and miles of magnificent trails. The director of Camp Chi is Brad Finkel.

The CHIne On program was developed in the summer of 2008 to encourage campers to participate in "random acts of loving kindness", referred to as חסד and כבוד in Hebrew.[9]

Chi participates in the Hillel Initiative to educate campers on modern Israeli history.[10] Learning about Judaism and Israeli culture are also activities.
