Israel Scout Caravan
August 7, 2013 at 7:00 PM Siegel JCC Auditorium
These energetic teens will entertain you about Israel through song, dance and film!
The goal of the caravan is "to work toward a better society and making a strong connection between the peoples of Israel and America." Through song and dance, conversations and activities, the Tzofim Friendship Caravan "brings a piece of Israel" to the U.S. as audiences consider the show to be a "voyage of sounds and images that represent Israel's people, culture, heritage and landmark."
FREE AND OPEN TO THE COMMUNITY!
This event is co-sponsored by the Jewish Federation of Delaware and the Siegel JCC.
