Meet Returning Counselor: Elli Friedman

Elli is from Norfolk, Virginia, and is now a Finance and Accounting student at James Madison University. She is a brother of Alpha Kappa Psi business fraternity where she works on the Community Service committee. She has been a member of the Camp Judaea family since her days in Offarim in 2006.

“CJ played a huge role in forming my Jewish Identity and my love for Israel. I wanted to come back to camp to give campers an amazing summer at one of my favorite places in the world.”

When Elli says that CJ is one of her favorite places in the world, it really speaks volumes— Elli recently traveled to India this year with the Joint Distribution Committee to explore Jewish Life in Mumbai and its suburbs. We’re glad she has chosen to spend another summer with us!
