VOL 9, NO 21 ■ MAY 28, 2010 / 15 SIVAN, 5770 WWW.THEJEWISHSTAR.COM Jewish Elvis = Jelvis? Kids and characters salute Israel at parade By Sergey Kadinsky

In front of the fl agship Apple store on 59th Street in Manhattan, the day of the Sa- lute to Israel parade, an elderly Bronx resi- dent banged his spoon on a metal plate. “This came out perfect — it’s my birthday today,” said Freddy Schuman, 85, as some of the parade participants sidled up to hit the plate for luck. “But I can’t understand those idiots across the street,” he said, referring to the dozen Neturei Karta demonstrators pro- testing the existence of Israel. Known to Yankee fans as “Freddy Sez,” the octogenarian baseball fanatic also carried one of his trademark homemade signs, “I love America, I love Israel, I love Yankees.” Searching for a match On 53rd Street, a line of fl oats carried rep- resentatives of the organizations that spon- sored the parade. The Jewish Channel’s fl oat Photo by Claudio Papapietro carried an extra touch of character.

Our Israel experience trips connect young Jews to truly amazing people. Each other.

Few things make a bigger impression on young Jews than a trip to Israel. There, they can make a deeper connection to the land of their ancestors and find inspiration that will last a lifetime. But these trips also connect them to one another, discovering the bonds that unite all of us as Jews. That’s why UJA-Federation supports Israel experience programs such as Taglit-Birthright Israel, MASA, NFTY, Bnei Akiva, and USY, to name a few. Because in the end, what young Jews discover in Israel are themselves. Connecting young Jews. Just one of the many ways UJA-Federation cares for, connects, and inspires the Jewish community.
