Israel Scouts Friendship Caravan to
Perform in Charlotte
Exciting! Fun! Musical!
Israeli!
This summer, Charlotte will
receive a visit from some very
special, musical guests. The
Israel Scouts (Tzofim)
Friendship Caravan is a group of
young Israeli scouts who travel
all over America sharing their
lives through song, dance, and
story.
Last summer, the Caravan
reached 35 states - including
over 250 camps, community
centers, houses of worship, and
schools - and performed for
nearly 100,000 people. This
year they will add Charlotte to
their trip, bringing the music
and culture of Israel right here to
our doorstep.
The Friendship Caravan is
energetic, musical, and great for
all ages. Come prepared to be
wowed. This exciting program
is being co-sponsored by the
Jewish Federation of Greater
Charlotte, the Levine JCC,
Temple Israel, and Temple Beth
El.
