The boys revelled in the exhilarating final activities of the day, from conquering the mechanical bull to perfecting their aim at the hoop toss, and bouncing with joy in the jumping castle. The blend of excitement and camaraderie made it a memorable end to an unforgettable day of fun-filled adventures.
Many thanks to Rabbi Schwartz for organising.
