Kulanu Families
Kulanu means “all together” in Hebrew. It’s a fun, family-oriented group that builds community and connects Temple Isaiah families with kids ages K-6th grade through informal Jewish programs and activities and special experiences. We’ll be designing ways for families to connect and have fun together both virtually and in-person (when possible) throughout the year. Questions? Contact Rabbi Miller.
Kulanu is made possible by a generous grant from the Rodan Family Foundation.

TEMPLE ISAIAH’S FAMILY CAMP
For families with children in K - 12th grade
Friday, April 19 - Sunday, April 21, 2024
at CAMP NEWMAN in Santa Rosa!
Are you ready to make unforgettable memories with your family and not have to plan it?
Look no further than Temple Isaiah’s Family Camp Weekend!On this weekend we’ll leave the distractions at home and focus on family, fun and connecting with Isaiah friends new and old. Experience time in the beautiful Sonoma hills, bonding over campfire sing-a-longs, and family friendly competitions. From unstructured time to Shabbat services, art and crafts, sports, opportunities for new Jewish discoveries, games and more, we have something for everyone to enjoy. There will be time for families to do things together and time for us to have our own age-level fun.
Who can participate?
All Temple Isaiah families with at least one child in Kindergarten through 12th grade are encouraged to come. You are welcome to bring younger children as well. Programming will be geared for kids preschool age and up. Participants in 7th-12th grade will be Counselors-in-Training and Counselors. Rabbi Miller will be in touch with them after registration.Where will we sleep?
We will be staying in Camp Newman’s NEW cabins. All families will stay in private cabins with their own bathrooms. We’ll provide the beds, BYOB (bring your own bedding).Children in 2nd grade and above will stay in cabins with adult and teen staff. If younger children who are thinking about overnight camp would like to try this experience, we will try to accommodate. Older children can also choose to opt out of the kid’s cabin.
Camp Newman has opened their new adult lodge. If we fill all the cabins (which is likely to happen), adults who have children sleeping in the kid cabins will be assigned to the lodge. The lodge has rooms with two queen beds and private bathrooms. It is more like a hotel room than a camp cabin.
