Syrian- I would be more than happy to give you a grand tour of brooklyn in the summer time. I’ll show you where the people are. Let’s take a walk past the SCC. Why do my eyes deceive me, are there actual sephardic campers??!! then lets head over to Mikdesh melech Matamidim wow do I hear sounds of boys learning in the morning?? I wonder what the overnights are schedulued for??? As we continue we pass Shaarim Day camp/a division of Shaare Torah. Let’s go to the boys day camp first. Wonders of wonder there are actual sephardim in the camp full to capacity B’H. Wait we still have to get to the girls division. We will also be stopping by the various ashkenaz day camps that have so graciously accommadated our syrian sephardic children. Syrian, please take off your rose colored sunglasses!! I am sure everyone in YOUR ciricles are in Deal all summer, but my friends run in the range of the Fabulously wealthy to those who need unfortunately need fininancel aassistance. Yes, the ones that can afford, do go to Deal. But most of my friends are in Brooklyn. I can assure you that there are more have nots, than the haves. And with your 95%, you are assuming, that 95% of the syrian jewish community have the means to be able to afford the summer in Deal.
