EEC Diplomatic Ball

Five of us attended the Ethnic Enrichment Commission's Diplomatic Ball at Crown Center:  TJ & Erin, Deb, Maria and Ying.  The Ball was hosted by Indonesia, India and Thailand.

Yom HaAtzmaut - Israel's 70th Anniversary

Israel Spirit was busy helping host Yom HaAtzmaut at the JCC.  We produced the official logo t-shirts, hosted a craft table, and provided the food (falafel, two salads, fish sticks, Bamba, potato chips, marzipan and dates from Israel!).  Lots of wonderful volunteers, and lots of wonderful Israeli food.

Our wonderful cashiers:  Stacey and Gayle

KCKCC Ethnic Festival

We brought a craft/information table to the annual festival at Kansas City, KS Community College.  Mary (from Tikvah) joined Deb for a while (it's a long day).

Northland Ethnic Festival

This year, we decided to only have a craft/information table so that we could actually talk to people about Israel.  Although people really loved the lentil soup we made over the past three years, we really didn't get to talk to the attendees.  The Tikvah Dancers had a wonderful, lively performance, as well.
