We studied the environment in Oleta State Park, North Miami Beach FL. We ate. We walked. We kayaked. We had 56 people in attendance including Rabbi Mario Rojzman and twenty five young people. The goal was to stuy torah and get non-traditional people together in a Jewish experience.

Self Assessment
there was a buzz about how was the kayaking? when is the next program planned? Those who went on the nature walk and kayaking trip felt they learned something which everyone else wanted to know about. The torah and the environment discussion was enlightening. Everyone was surprised at the depth of thought which they brought to the group.
A dozen new prospective members attended and enjoyed. We engaged new guys in setting up this project; ie positioning the kayaks, shopping for and carrying in the food, helping young and old people enter a kayak for the first time, paddling for younger children.
We helped build new leaders of various portions of the innitiative. They will feel comfortable providing this service for new attendees. We build a nice little community among those who participated.
