Every NFTY event, our Communications Vice President, Ben Weiss, creates a new Gesher ("Bridge" in Hebrew, or "Gesh" for short) with news articles, profiles of NFTYites, important information about upcoming events, fun games and activities, and of course lots of photos of our NFTYites.

NFTY-CAR’s year-long Songleading Va’ad needs you! Participation in the Va’ad is open to anyone in 9th-12th grade with an interest in songleading. No prior experience is required and you don’t have to play the guitar or be musically proficient. A willingness to learn and actively participate throughout the year is the only requirement. The Va’ad will offer opportunities to get involved in songleading at 2009-2010 NFTY-CAR events. Additionally, we’ve created other opportunities to get hands on songleading experience at programs and at congregations throughout the Chicago Jewish community all year long.
