Try your best at fun obstacle courses and lawn games and nosh on a bagel with friends (GF too). Come celebrate the spirit of teamwork, perseverance, and the joy of Jewish identity as we take a peek at the inspiring story behind the Games through the beautiful PJ Library book Maccabiah: The Long Ride to the International Sports Games.
