Chabad of the Valley NY Trip for Girls

For 5 action-packed days 19 girls from Chabad of the Valley’s Bat Mitzvah Club and Teen Center experienced a non stop adventure in New York! “Under the careful guidance of Head Counselor Etti Perman and counselors Kessem Nir and Chaya Mushka Greene, the girls toured up and down the state from Mid Town Manhattan, to Hunter Mountain-the Catskill’s famed ski resort”, said Rabbi Mayer Greene the event’s director.

Sight seeing at the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and Times square, a shopping spree all along 34th street, the virtual arcade at ESPN ZONE, lunch at Circa, dinner at Jerusalem II and a Limo ride over the Brooklyn Bridge gave everyone a real taste of life in the “city that never sleeps”.

The spectacular views of the breathtaking snow-covered mountains in Tannersville were a real treat for the California girls, many of whom were seeing snow for the first time in their lives. Snow tubing down Hunter Mountain was quite thrilling to say the least!

Shabbos was truly inspiring. From the experience of davening in 770, to the warm hospitality of the many Crown Heights families that hosted the girls for the lively Shabbos meals and activities, it was undoubtedly a Shabbos that they will never forget!

Back in Crown Heights the girls were amazed by the interactive exhibits at the Jewish Children’s Museum. They enjoyed a sumptuous lunch at Boulevard Café and enjoyed the opportunity to buy some meaningful souvenirs at Judaica World. Monday’s long anticipated visits to the Rebbe’s Room, the Rebbe’s Library and the Ohel were truly memorable and left impressions on all of the girls that will last a lifetime.
