A group of 41 young people sailed for Israel for a year of work and study under the auspices of the Habonim Youth Workshops. This is the fifth year of operation of the Workshop program.
The young people, from all over the United States, will spend most of the year working and studying in a kibbutz. They will make extensive trips throughout the country on conducted tours and in small hiking groups. They will also be prepared for youth leadership work on their return at the end of the years.
