Shalom Galil Parents! Yesterday was the first full day of second
session and we got off to a swinging start with tochnit erev (evening
activity) Fifties Night. Starting right after hitkensut erev (flag
lowering) and using Grease as our inspiration, everyone got dressed up
like greasers and pink ladies before going to aruchat erev (dinner).
We listened to fifties music and did the twist and hand jive. Then we
all went over to the pavilion for a Fifties carnival where we watched
Grease Lightning and then did fifties-esque activities like an
arm-wrestling competition and gym class. It was very cute. The
carnival turned into a big party that lasted until rad hyon, the song
we sing at the end of every macheneh-wide activity, right before we put
the kids asleep.

Love
Dusty v’Nora
