Welcome to NFTY MAR!
NFTY’s Mid Atlantic Region (NFTY-MAR) includes North Carolina (excluding Charlotte), eastern West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC. We work in partnership with Union for Reform Judaism affiliated congregations to provide meaningful Jewish experiences for middle and high school students.
Registration is officially open for our first event of the year!
NFTYx TBAHIGH
Join us on Saturday, Oct. 14 from 3:00-7:00 PM
for a partnership with TBAHigh, the youth group at Temple Beth Ami in Rockville, Maryland.
Teens will begin at Temple Beth Ami, get to know each other, participate in fun programming, take a bus over to Sky Zone Trampoline Park, return to eat dinner, and have a brief Havdalah service to close the night. All 8-12th Grade Jewish Teens are invited to attend this program! This will be an awesome opportunity for Jewish teens around the area to meet, make new friends, and have lots of fun.
More information about the event can be found on the registration form. The cost to attend is $36.
If you have questions, reach out to us at the emails below, or contact TBAHigh advisor Alyssa Katon (akaton@bethami.org). Thank you to Temple Beth Ami for hosting the first NFTYx MAR event of the school year! We are SO excited!
