Naples BBYO is back

By Jessica Zimmerman, Associate Regional Dir., North Florida Region

Shalom Naples families.

We hope you had a safe and wonderful summer and that the holidays were meaningful and reformative.

In the land of Naples BBYO, we are back up and running. BBYO is slowly beginning in-person programming. In September, the Mishpacha BBG Board gathered for its first in-person board meeting at Lowdermilk Beach Park. We had a blast reminiscing and planning for the year ahead, while wearing masks and remaining six feet apart. If you would like additional information about future in-person and virtual events, please connect directly with Jess Zimmerman, our staff in Naples.

In the interim, if you are a Jewish 8thto 12th-grader in the Naples area, we want you to join BBYO and become a part of the Brother and Sisterhood that changes lives and adds Jewish meaning to life in high school and beyond. You can join BBYO Naples by going to bit.ly/memberbbyo. We promise, you will not regret it!

Brand new this year, BBYO is offering Israel vouchers that will reduce the price, by $3,000, to all Israel-related BBYO travel for 2021! That’s right, $3,000 to use towards any Israel-related travel program. Offered to teenagers in grades 9-12, this opportunity is available by application only to BBYO members. To learn more, visit bbyopassport.org.

We hope to see you soon! From your friends at Naples BBYO—stay safe.

P.S. We are actively searching for volunteer chapter advisors in Naples. The position requires about 8 to 10 hours a month and the benefits are far too many to list. If interested, visit https://bbyo.org/get-involved/becomean-advisor.
