Shabbat Shira
Rooms, Rates, and Travel

The registration fee for Shabbat Shira includes lodging on camp at OSRUI, meals, and all programming and materials. 

 

In years past, OSRUI ran the operations of Shabbat Shira; their expenses were part of their annual camp budget. As Sing Unto God is now the sole producer of the program, we are responsible for all fees, program materials, and expenses.

TRAVEL

​​

Timing

We begin Thursday October 31st at 4pm, and conclude around 11:00am Sunday November 3rd.

​

​Location

Shabbat Shira takes place at Olin-Sang-Ruby Union Institute, the regional camp of the Union for Reform Judaism in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, located between Milwaukee and Madison, about 120 miles north of Chicago.

 

Air

The nearest airport is Milwaukee, Wisconsin (MKE - General Mitchell International Airport), a 50-minute drive from camp. We begin Thursday October 31st at 4pm, and conclude around 11:00am Sunday November 3rd. The best time to arrive at the Milwaukee Airport for the program is on Thursday between 10:30am and 2:30pm.  We suggest making airline reservations to depart on Sunday after 1:30pm.  

​

Van transportation from the Milwaukee Airport to OSRUI

We have information about ground transportation. There is a shuttle service called GoRightWay where you can reserve a car, or a small van for multiple passengers. The vans require a single person to reserve, and then you are responsible for filling the seats.  We will share information connecting you to other participants for ground transporation later in the fall.

 

Driving Directions

Driving directions between Milwaukee airport and camp are available here. 

 

Additional Transit Options

Some participants choose to fly into O’Hare.  Please note that the camp is a 2-hour drive from O’Hare Airport  (ORD) in Chicago and shuttles and other means of transportation can be expensive.  You can rent a car or find someone coming from the Chicago area from whom to hitch a ride. We will connect folks who are flying into Chicago later in the fall.

 

We encourage those who are looking for rides or who are offering to share their ride to indicate their interest by posting in the Shabbat Shira Facebook group.
