111.1 hey couldn't really all travel to Israel,
but this was the next best thing.
More than a hundred young adults
who had or will have an Israeli ex-
perience participated in the "Back to
Ben Yehuda" street fair last month
at Congregation Shaarey Zedek-B'nai
Israel Center.
The sights and sounds of one of the hipper
streets in Jerusalem were re-created at the fair,
with booths resembling storefronts serving as
stations for the teens to create Judaica arts and
crafts. The gifts were donated to Yad Ezra, the
Resettlement Service of Jewish Family Service,
senior citizen residences and Shalom Detroit.
The event, sponsored by NADIV, a volunteer
group of Jewish teens and young adults, also
gave the past and future Israel program partic-
ipants an opportunity to socialize, perform
mitzvot and relive their Israel memories. Music
and food rounded out the day.
