Maccabiah

Maccabiah is a 2 or 3-day-long camp-wide competition where the the entire camp population is split into two teams. The teams are usually color-coded as a blue team and a white team. Therefore, the event is sometimes known infomally as Color War. As a realic of each Maccabiah a banner is created by each of the two teams; blue and white, and anyonamous donation was provided to save these banners when the camp closed down

Time of Occurance
Maccabiah can be at any time of the summer, but the most common time is in the last week of camp.

Maccabiah Fakeout
There are two types of ways to tell if there is a Maccabiah Fakeout (meaning there's no Maccabiah [yet]) and a Maccabiah Breakout (when Maccabiah actually starts.)

Maccabiah Breakout
Usually a Breakout (BT) or a Fakeout (FT) happen on a major event. One year, a BT occured during the Tranzit Show out on by Israeli counselors. The teams were Blue Hamayim (Water) and White Ha'adamah (Earth.) However, one year, campers were woken up in the middle of the night (2 am) for a Maccabiah Fakeout (which turned out to be a College Bowl breakout.)
