Camp Hess Kramer, part of the Wilshire Boulevard Temple Camps was the beautiful setting for this terrific outdoor Bat Mitzvah which celebrated both the natural rustic beauty of Southern California and it’s beaches the Bat Mitzvah girl loves so much.
The event planner was Judi Walley better known in Southern California as founder of Mitzvah Mama Special Events.
