Eight young counselors at a Jewish camp in Michigan were recently fired for smoking marijuana on the job, according to the Detroit Jewish News. The dismissal of the Camp Tamarack counselors, who were caught using the illegal substance in areas not frequented by campers, comes at a time when Jewish camps around the country are facing a shortage of qualified Jewish personnel.
