Dear Parents: I hope you have been following us on Instagram to feel the thrill of NCSY Derech! This past week, our program had incredible experiences. Our week began with a tour of the old city of Yerushalayim and the city of David. We walked through Chizkiyahu's water tunnels and learned about the history of the Old City. On Monday, we went to Efrat, where we helped clean up a supply center that had an electrical fire. We also made a BBQ for soldiers. While we were in the Gush area, NCSY Derech had the incredible opportunity to have a tour of Yeshivat Har Etzion with Rabbi Moshe Taragin. On Tuesday, we started our journey to the beautiful Golan! We have been enjoying both educational and recreational touring in the areas of Teveria and the surrounding cities. We have been to the Aqua Kef water park, for example, and we have also seen the sites of the Yom Kippur war and a shul from times of the Gemara! Since Tuesaday, we have been loving the Golan! Last night's mishmar was nothing short of magical. We learned Torah, enjoyed kugel, cholent, and had a kumsitz in the fields of Hispin. Thank you to the families who reached out regarding sponsorships!! I will follow up about that. As always, feel free to text me on WhatsApp. I am here to help your sons have the "Best. Summer. Ever." In conclusion, I am uniquely proud of the fact that NCSY Derech has had strong learning and davening on the program each day. The boys have shiur each morning and chaburah at night. Additionally, the boys are truly getting to know one another. I can honestly say that NCSY Derech is providing a genuine tour of Israel with both education and recreation in a Torah atmosphere. The boys are also uniquely respectful and growth oriented. I cannot thank you enough for sharing your sons with NCSY Summer. Have a Great Shabbos! Rav Yoni
