Camp Ramah's Cob/Bottle Brick Bench

 Kudos to Cori Gottesman who shephereded this project to completion at Camp Ramah in Elkins Park.

In Cori's words: "It took a long time, including a Covid summer in which we didn’t make much progress, but it’s finished! It’s a shade structure that we needed… there’s room for more wooden benches so a bunk  of kids plus counselors can sit under it. It’ll also be good for kids who need a social or physical break without leaving the garden. The bench is also right in front of a wildflower and herbal bed, both areas where there’s lots of butterfly/bird activity.

"Thanks for bringing the bottle brick project to us. I think the kids learned a lot and kids over 4 summers had experience building bottle bricks and building the structure."

Kudos, Cori!
