Kesher Youth Group- Social Programming and Field Trips for Teens

Meaningful Jewish Experiences - at home and on the road!

This year we are excited to continue our social branch of the Kesher program led by Zoë Arking and Jacob Boyd. Several times throughout the year, we will bring together teens from Congregation Beth El, Temple Beth Sholom and Congregation Beth Tikvah for field trips, day/night outings, special programs and more.

These programs are fun opportunities to strengthen our connections and make meaningful memories in Kesher. For questions about Kesher Youth programs, please contact:
