In this episode, Rob Goodwin reconnects with Scott Sparr, a seven-year Camp Tevya veteran whose journey spans camper days in the early ’70s to formative summers working in the kitchen. Scott shares a series of remarkable Tevya encounters — from a subway sighting in Boston to a deeply emotional Shiva call on Long Island — that highlight the enduring bonds of the Tevya community.
Together, Rob and Scott reflect on:
- The leadership style of Aaron Gordon and the structure of early ’70s camp life
- The evolution of camp traditions, from cookouts to all-camp trips
- Life lessons learned in the kitchen — hard work, camaraderie, and the art of sweeping corners
- Memorable personalities
- The emotional impact of unexpected reunions and shared memories
Whether you were at Tevya in the ’70s or decades later, this episode is a heartfelt reminder of how camp connections echo across time and geography.
