OTEG Goes Boating in Central Park
On Monday, OTEG (Oholei Torah – Eighth Grade) went boating in Central Park in Manhattan. The trip was a reward for the Bochrim who finished the “Tishrei Challenge over Sukkos.
After Davening Mincha in 770 the Boys took a train to Manhattan where they had snacks, went boating, played a bit and returned to Crown Heights.
The Bochurim also did Mivtzoim all day. They put Teffilin 6 people.
OTEG, Run by Rabbi Yossi Bryski, is in its fifth year now. It provides the eighth graders of Oholei Torah many activities throughout the year.

Disaster Waiting to Happen
Agree with #1. This is an outrage. Wasn’t there already a boating disaster during the summer in upstate NY? How many more tragedies do we need?
Who was in charge of these kids?
A happy camper
The water is knee deep. They dont give life jackets in central park.
Looks like the kids had fun.
im impressed
i love the mivtzoim

#3, you are a liar.
I used to work for the Parks Commission.
Central Park Lake is 18 acres in size, and average depth is 6-8 feet. A person can easily drown in it.
The men who give you the boat offer everyone a life vest. You are encouraged to take it. You have the right to refuse.
So #3, I do not know why you choose to lie about such an important thing. Shame on you.
