YOUTH LEADERSHIP
Mosh madrichimot (counselors) are known for their boundless energy, huge hearts, and passionate idealism. They collectively create a summer and year-round curriculum meant to inspire and empower campers. Tzevet (staff) grows each camper’s individual strengths, building their leadership, critical thinking, and teamwork skills. They are supported by year-round staff who train and advise them.
Graduates of Camp Moshava and Habonim Dror leadership programs go on to engage in the community, becoming leaders and activists in social justice and Jewish communal organizations during and after college.
CAMPER CARE
Mosh's Camper Care team is spearheaded by Queenesha Herbert, LCPC, C-DBT. Queenesha joined the Mosh team in 2023. Our camper care team also includes two melavimot, camper care coordinators, who are Mosh camp counselors focusing on inclusion and mental health for all of the campers over the summer. Together this team guides staff to create a positive, safe space for all campers to grow and thrive, as well as providing individualized camper support as needed.
Cap Goldenberg has been going to Mosh since 2014. He joined tzevet (staff) virtually in the summer of 2020 and has worked every year since. He graduates from Binghamton University this spring.

Talia Rodwin
Co-Executive Director
I'm a Mosh lifer and am excited to keep building Mosh as a vibrant, inclusive community. I oversee all aspects of our summer and year-round programming, as well as our camp budget and operations.
I am the mom of three Moshniks and am thrilled to now be leading Mosh's camper recruitment and retention, fundraising, family and alumni engagement, and community relations efforts.
Karin Hammou
The most magical thing about Mosh to me is that it gives space for children to create their own world the way they want it to be and make their society better.
Director of Engagement
Rachel Glaser
Community Remembrance
​
Our beloved Rachel Glaser led Mosh as director/business manager for nearly three decades. In that time, she ensured that “because of the individual, the community is stronger. And because of the community, the individual is stronger.”
Rachel passed away on February 12, 2022/1 Adar 5782, but her impact lives on--l'dor v'dor (from generation to generation) -- in the lifelong learning instilled in all of us Moshniks who were lucky enough to be made to feel like members of her family.
​
We created the Rachel Glaser Community Remembrance Project to collect and share the memories we Moshniks treasure as we continue to hold Rachel close to us. Please see them here.
