19th Maccabiah Games

On July 17-30, 2013, the 19th Maccabiah Games will take place in Israel. In the games, the United States is sending a junior Track and Field team(male and female athletes born in 1995 to 1998). The only requirement is that the athletes are raised jewish. If you have any athletes, or know of any in your area that fulfill these requirements, please let them know about this great opportunity.

I am writing to you on behalf of our track and field chairman -Rob Fellman ( Rob can reached at rfellman7@aol.com). The trip to Israel is a great athletic event, but it is even a better cultural event that will get the athletes in touch with their jewish heritage, as the event includes competition as well as travel throughout the country of Israel.
