Los Angeles Teen Havurah held a fund-raising activity on October 30th. They participated in making a movie at the Sports Arena in Los Angeles.
Accompanied by their counselors, Lauren Abbott and Eric Posner, as well as a host of friends, the teens joined 10,000 other people to be part of the crowd featured in the movie, untitled romantic, comedy, set in the basketball world.
Perhaps the highlights of the day were getting to shake hands with Billy Crystal and collect autographs. The teens especially enjoyed seeing the Laker basketball players.
Then on December 3-4, they had their annual Chanukah party. They joined the CSUN team of deaf students decorating the Kodak feat for the 1995 Rose Parade. The float is a giant mother leopard with two baby kittens. Perhaps the highlight for the teens was climbing the scaffolding to decorate jungle flowers and the mama leopard 12-15 feet off the ground.
Then the teens went to Brad Cohen’s home for their first anniversary party with their counselors. They planned activities for the next six months.
After a sleepover – which wasn’t really much of a Sleep-over because the teens were awake till the wee hours of the morning – they joined JDCC for their Chanukah party.
So it was a very busy and productive weekend for the Los Angeles Teen Havurah.
From all the teens in the NCJD/JDCC Teen Havurah: Happy Hanukkah and Happy New 1995!
