Museum of The Moving Image
& Louis Armstrong House
Thursday, July 12
We are off to Queens for a day of entertainment greats. We start the day with a visit to the Museum Of The Moving Image. Lunch is at Ben’s Best Kosher Deli (Not connected with any other “Ben’s”). Named one of the best Jewish Deli’s in America, Ben’s Best was featured in the movie, “The Comedian” with Robert De Niro and Danny DeVito (They’re Jewish? Who knew?).
After lunch we will visit the Louis Armstrong House and Museum. Louis Armstrong was one of the most recognizable entertainers in the world when he chose the working-class neighborhood of Corona, Queens to be his home in 1943. “And you take this neighborhood we live in,” Louis said in 1964. “We’re right out here with the rest of the colored folk and the Puerto Ricans and Italians and the Hebrew cats. We don’t need to move out in the suburbs to some big mansion with lots of servants and yardmen and things.” So, “Hebrew cats”, You will have the chance to learn a lot more about one of the 20th century’s greatest musicians.

METNY Encampment 2018
Sunday, August 19 - 26 at Camp Ramah, Wingdale
Encampment is an amazingly fun time at the end of the summer, right before school starts.
For a week, 450+ teens in grades 6-8 (Kadima) and 9-12 (USY) live in a welcoming, exciting Jewish environment.
Encampment is open to current 5th-11th graders
(who will be starting 6th-12th grade in September).
Bet Torah Youth believes strongly in this program and so we want to provide financial support. We offer a
$325 reimbursement of tuition
for those attending the full week (that's 50% off the early bird tuition).
Are not able to attend the full week and can only go for a few days? We also offer $100 reimbursement for those that attend for a half-week.
The only requirements for the reimbursement is that you are a Bet Torah congregant in good standing, and the teen be up to date on youth group membership dues for 2018-2019.
