Jewish authorities not only organized schools, but 2-week summer camps for children and youth. The summer camp was organized by the The Education Department and located at Marysin. Marysin was one of the streets that formed the boundary of the Ghetto. About 10,000 children and youths participated. We believe the camp operated in 1940 and 1941. I'm not sure about 1942. By that time the NAZIs were transporting the Lodz Jews in large numbers. We have been unable to find any detailed information about the summer camp.
