Northland Festival

We made lentil soup again, and it was a big hit.  The Tikvah Dancers performed.  We weren't able to have a craft/info table this year.

Jewish Film Festival - "Above and Beyond"

Israel Spirit was one of the sponsors of the "Above and Beyond" film, which was about American flyers and the amazing story of getting aircraft to the new state of Israel in 1948.  We had a table at the film to show people what we typically do for outreach.

If you missed the Jewish film festival, "Above and Beyond" is available on Netflix.

Native Sons and Daughters of KC Gala

Deb and Ben attended the NSDKC gala at Bartle Hall where the Ethnic Enrichment Commission was honored with a historical marker that was installed near the EEF festival site in Swope Park.

St. Peter's School ethnic fair

Deb and Ben brought a craft table to St. Peter's School in KC again, and brought stuffed dates as a taste of Israel.  The Tikvah Dancers performed, although the floor was troublesome.

2015 American Royal Parade

Erin and TJ represented Israel on the Ethnic Enrichment Commission's float in the American Royal Parade, which was held in conjunction with the American Royal BBQ festival on the grounds of the Kaufmann sports complex.
