Step 1: Get friends together.


Step 2: Build the largest bonfire you could.


Step 3: Throw in your neighbor’s door – he doesn’t need it anyway!


Step 4: Repeat. Remember you are not yotza [haven’t fulfilled your obligation] until there is a solid ring of fire around the whole Har Nof and it looks like the whole forest is burning down.


Step 5: Repeat again.


Step 6: After fighting traffic of course, attend a Masa Gala Event at the Latrun.


When does the party start?


Right now!


Now a word from our Prime Minister. I’ll sum up his speech like this. "All you Masa participants just had a great year! Now go back home pack your things come Home and make Aliyah!" (That’s really what he said. You could see for yourself by clicking here! It was almost entirely an apolitical event aside from some uncalled for, and completely out of place, political remarks by one JA/MASA executive.)


And now let’s rock the house with some Carlebach songs sung by Shlomo Simcha! Am Yisrael Chai!


Back to Har Nof where the fires are ablazing!


And off the Meron! Tomb of Rav Shimon Bar Yochi, what Lag B’Omer is all about!
