I have one chassidish friend her husband is a rebbe and shes a lifeguard, but im curious about other families that go how they make it work financially. im assuming they're still paying rent on their apartments the months they go up, and what about work etc |
Don't bother starting a thread, it always ends up the same way, by posters that know nothing about the going upstate for the summer lifestyle, & they just like to badmouth others.

Only women who don’t work in the summer (anyone employed in school, those who are their own boss, flexible hours) or can work remotely (many do) can go up.

Chassidish or not, as there are all types of jews upstate , during summer: it's simply part of a lifestyle and ppl make it work. Some have to take summer jobs to make it work, others work remotely, or travel for work.

I didnt mean to offend or badmouth anyone.
I just didnt grow up with this mentality so wanted to understand it a bit more

Ever heard of summer vacation? Pesach programs? Yeshiva week? Midwinter Florida?
Every family does whatever works for them and some people do none! There are no blanket rules. Not every woman works in an office 9-5 all year round.

I grew up going to cool places for 2-3 weeks over the summer but not the whole summer. My mother didnt work and my father owned his own business so he was able to take off and had managers supervising while we went away. Yeshiva week wasnt a thing since I went to public school. Pesach programs I didnt know about until I got to HS and met a few modern orthodox girls from my community when I was becoming frum.
No need to be snarky! I was really just asking curiously. It sounds nice going to a diff location for 2 months and being in nature

I wasn’t trying to be snarky. I was trying to explain that everyone vacations according to their standards, or none at all, and going upstate for the summer is just one of many ideas for those who can afford it.

Some schools are ending earlier this year on June 19th, the second Monday in June and some will go up that week. Technically the third week in June.

The women either are sahm, work in a school, or work remotely ( I know a lot of women personally that work remotely) the men come up for the weekends generally. Yes it’s very hard to understand if you didn’t grow up with the mentality, but it’s really a nice and enjoyable thing to do if you are able. Most of the crowd is coming from the city where they live in small apartments all year rounds, and love having the outdoor play space for the kids in the summer.

And some people I know (such as female doctors) go up each weekend.

My uncle has a summer job upstate, my aunt can't work remotely. She's home for the week and goes upstate for weekends. My mother also had a time when she went only for weekends while my father was upstate all summer. Actually, quite afew women in my parents currently bungalow colony, come up only for weekends.
