Mifgash Kayeetz - Summer Mifgash '24 Interest Form
...let us know your interest in attending or hosting '24 Summer Mifgash!
Announcing CCM's Mifgash 2024 Adventures!
Use this form to early register let us know that your teen(s) are interested in the Bay Area Mifgash Kayeetz (Summer encounter) AND/OR you can host 2 Israeli students in June 2024 in addition to your teen(s) participating. These unique opportunities aim to interweave our American and Israeli teens through friendship, and to deepen your teen's (and family's) shared sense of K'lal Israel (Jewish peoplehood), and enhance our understanding of what it means to be Jewish and grow up in each country.
Summer 2024 in the Bay Area (Israelis come to us!) June 6 - 16, 2024 (Final dates will be published once they purchase their tickets.)
About Mifgash Kayeetz/Summer: This 10-day journey features daily bus adventures all over the Bay Area with your Midrasha friends and our visiting Israeli students. The summer itinerary will take us to an overnight retreat, an amusement park, university tours, and so much more! Hosting a pair of Israeli teens is not required to participate, but it does deepen your teen’s (and your family's) experience.
