As the pandemic waned, we envisioned creating an Israel experience with our HEA community. Many teens missed out on having a community celebration of their bar and bat mitzvah during the pandemic, and other members were having the itch to travel again.
With Shira Teed’s leadership, HEA made a connection with the Fuchsberg Center, part of the Masorti (Conservative) movement in Israel and designed a unique Colorado-style Israel adventure for the HEA community. This trip will take place December 17- 28.
What does it mean this is a Colorado-style adventure? We will spend as much time as possible active and outdoors, visit off-the-beaten-path sites, spend time at a Conservative kibbutz—Kibbutz haNaton, and visit our partnership community in Ramat haNegev.
This experience is designed to be intergenerational. Adults of all ages (with and without children and grandchildren) and families with teens will have specific programming designed for their needs and interests.
The key is the EXPERIENCE. If you have ever been part of a camp or a retreat, you know the power of experiential education. The best moments for learning, engaging, and deepening relationships include being immersed in place and community.
Before and after the trip, we will have programs specifically for the tour participants-building relationships, familiarity and strengthening our HEA community.
We currently have a nice mix of families with teens, empty nesters, single folks, couples and others traveling without children registered. There is space available for you and yours… Registration is due by September 3, and the final payment by October 1.
Register today. We’re saving you a seat on the bus! Shabbat Shalom!
