Brand New Equestrian Center<br />
Horseback riding will allow <strong>Ramah</strong> campers to<br />
discover nature and the world around them from<br />
a new perspective. To facilitate the horseback riding<br />
experience and the opportunities for chesed and<br />
teamwork it provides, the master plan includes<br />
an equestrian center, with stables, corrals and<br />
pastures.<br />
Levine Retreat Center<br />
<strong>Ramah</strong>’s existing retreat center will be remodeled<br />
to house more guests with the addition of more<br />
bedrooms and bathrooms. The seven bedroom<br />
house will accommodate groups of up to 20 people,<br />
and will be used by the Ezra program during the<br />
summer. Sun shades will adorn the porch to<br />
provide a welcoming gathering space, and the<br />
newly landscaped garden will be in view.<br />
Trail System<br />
The six-mile trail system envisioned to loop<br />
around <strong>Ramah</strong>’s acreage will provide ample<br />
opportunities for campers to explore a wide range<br />
of natural habitats, including live oak forests,<br />
native grasslands, and oak and sycamore groves<br />
without ever having to leave camp property. They<br />
will be able to pick a ripe orange right off the tree,<br />
and climb up challenging mountainsides to be<br />
rewarded with beautiful views of the mountains<br />
to the north and the Ojai Valley to the west.<br />
These exciting developments will only become a reality through the vision and generosity of<br />
members of the <strong>Ramah</strong> family. Gifts to the capital campaign, “Enhancing the Journey,” are already<br />
being sought. For more information, contact <strong>Ramah</strong>’s development director, Carol Abrams, at<br />
