Soon i will go to the seminar of Judaism and jewish history only for the weekend.
I have been there a couple of years ago to two of these kind of events.
At that time it was one of the few chances to meet with other young jewish people. This made them unique and gave them an ace which made the inconveniences easier to support.
Time has gone, the place where the event will be held has known dramatic changes(for the good), the ways to keep in touch with the other young jews have multiplied by one hand through the increase in the number of programs created for them and by the other hand through the internet, messenger, facebook and so on.
This seminar had as a strong point the concern for knowledge.The biggest part of it was dedicated to the study and discusion of topics related to tradition and history.
It is very interesting to see today how much succes will such a seminar have in the context of a broader line of events, from which the larger part of them being created having fun a the main subject.
Soon we will see.:)
