What at great start to the Maccabiah Games we have had these first few days with the amazing athletes of Team USA! The ISRAEL CONNECT educational and cultural program has been wonderful.  It was great to see the kids at the Wall yesterday in Jerusalem and today, the Dead Sea and Masada were absolutely inspirational! Tomorrow we will visit Yad Vashem and then we head to Kedma Gardens for the Phyllis Magerman B'nai Mitzvah Ceremony. I am so proud to be a member of Team USA.
