Passover Spring Retreat for IAF Widows and Orphans
Organized by the IAF Casualty and Loss Service Center and funded by the American Iranian Jewish Federation of New York, the Passover Spring Retreat brings together IAF widows and orphans for a recreational, therapeutic and bond-building retreat. Each year the location is different.
In 2008, the Retreat hosted 76 widows and 84 orphans for a two day program of activities in the Galilee. The group was hosted at Kibbutz Hagoshrim and during their stay they were treated with a festive dinner and a performance from Israeli Artist Ariel Kaminsky. This year's retreat included hiking at the "Lost Valley" in the Galilee, a jeep tour, army tracking workshops and other extreme workshop activities.
