==History==
Camp Tawonga was established by Louis and Emma Blumenthal in 1925〔()〕 and was originally established in 1928 as separate camps known as Camp Kelowa for Boys, and Singing Trail for Girls at Huntington Lake just below the alpine level at 7,000 feet, located in the High Sierras, 65 miles Northeast of Fresno. Camp Tawonga moved to its current site on the middle fork of the Tuolumne River in 1963. During 2003-2007, Camp Tawonga ran the Oseh Shalom-Sanea al Salam—the Palestinian-Jewish Family Peacemakers Camp—in cooperation with the Jewish-Palestinian Living Room Dialogue.〔(in the Holy Land: Inside the Anguish of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict'', Judith Kuriansky, editor. Connecticut: Praeger Publishers, 2006, p. 260 )〕 On July 3, 2013, a tree fell at the camp, killing a counselor and injuring several others.〔()〕 In August 2013, the camp was in the path of the Rim Fire. After the camp was evacuated, a person returned to the camp to rescue a Torah scroll which had previously survived the Holocaust.〔()〕 The camp lost three buildings to the fire; other damage was described as repairable.
