The pupils of the Dom Sierot (Orphans' Home), as well as other Jewish orphanages from Warsaw, stayed in Różyczka (colloquially known as Gocławek) during the holidays. For Dr. Rywka Boszes, these were the first summer camps during which she looked after children as a certified doctor. She completed her medical studies at the University of Warsaw in June of the same year. Earlier, from 1924, as an educator and a nurse, she spent many summers in Czaplowisko.
