Camp Directors: Rabbi Avremi and Shaindy Schapiro
Rabbi Avremi is a graduate of the Rabbinical College of America Since moving to Milwaukee in 2006, he has been working as the Executive Director of the Youth Division for Lubavitch of Wisconsin. Some additional programs under his direction include 15 years at the Director of Camp Gan Israel Milwaukee, CTeen, and Mitzvah Corps.
Rabbi Avremi's passion for camp and his enthusiasm for creating new and fun ways to reach out to all Jews, are just part of what makes him a great director for Ckids Gan Izzy!
Shaindy has been serving as a shulcha at Lubavitch of Wisconsin alongside her husband Rabbi Avremi since their move here in 2006. Teaching and working with children of all ages has been a passion of hers since high school. This passion has led Shaindy to teaching positions and leadership roles at Gan Izzys all over the country. Shaindy’s knowledge, experience, and devotion to today’s children make her a great partner in running Ckids Gan Izzy!
When Rabbi Avremi and Shaindy are not busy planning and running camp you can find them spending time with their children, hosting guests around their Shabbos table, and traveling!
