Machaneh Yaaleh Veyavo.

Dear Parents,
 

Machaneh 2026 is just around the corner, and I am so excited to share this experience with you and your children. In a world full of moving parts and constant change, Machaneh remains one thing every Channich can count on. We bring together over 1000 people from different families, backgrounds and perspectives, all sharing one goal: keeping our beautiful story as Am Yisrael alive.
 

Machaneh is filled with daily educational Tochniot, Tiyulim, Chuggim, sports, beach, Ruach sessions and so many more meaningful experiences. 
 

This year, the name for Machaneh is Machaneh Yaaleh Veyavo.
 

It’s a prayer many of us know well, with so many different ways of connecting to and being seen by Hashem. But in every one of those ways, Hashem isn’t looking for the bad we’ve done or the good we’ve missed. He’s searching for the best in each of us, the spark, no matter where we are holding.
 

That’s exactly what we’re going to do this Machaneh. Every Madrich, Channich, Rosh, doctor, medic and CSO member will be searching for that same spark in one another.
 

And once the spark is found, we’ve got something to build on. How do we build and improve?  By simply getting up every day and showing up. That’s all Hashem asks of us, and it’s what we should be asking of each other too.
 

Find the spark. Get up. Show up.
 

That is what Machaneh Yaaleh Veyavo is all about!
