The Hunt for "Emotions."

West Coast NCSY’s East Bay chapter in Northern California had a very creative event last week that had all their NCSYers cycling through a wide range of emotions. West Coast NCSY runs great social events that occur almost every week somewhere in the region. The East Bay event was a scavenger hunt at San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf. However, this was not your grandfather’s scavenger hunt. It was a digital photo hunt with the mission of capturing different “emotions.” The NCSYers had a great time running all around the Wharf with their friends.

NCSY Friday Night Lights in Northern California!

West Coast NCSY has implemented successfully the Friday Night Lights (FNL) program which brings the excitement of Shabbat to local Jewish teens! Our most recent FNL was a double header in Northern California with one in San Francisco and Oakland. The teens had an inspiring Davening with explanation and a Shabbos meal with singing, D'Vrei Torah, stories, and great food! Then the teens got to hang out with their friends, play games, enjoyed junk food and have a "Oneg Shabbos." It was a wonderful experience for all and the true brilliance of Shabbos was shared by all.

West Coast NCSY Super Bowl Parties: Huge Success

West Coast NCSY Super Bowl Parties Were A Huge Success! The City and Valley NCSY had two wonderful Super Bowl parties this past Sunday. City NCSY had over 50 Jewish teens watching the Colts beat the Bears on one big screen and one plasma. They also enjoyed pool, ping pong, friends, and good food, which included a Jeff’s hot wing competition.

The Valley had close to 80 kids with some serious fans of football and basketball. Basketball? While the game was on the big screen there was also a hard core full court basketball game going on in the backyard. Everyone enjoyed junk food and pizza, and all their buddies from around the valley.

It was great to have all these Jewish teens together enjoying being with other Jewish teens, eating kosher food and hanging out with West Coast NCSY advisors. It was a good game and an even better event!
