Ahavas Golda Girls Find Their Inner Star!

Ahavas Golda Girls Find Their Inner Star!

Ahavas Golda Girls Find Their Inner Star!
layer 41

Ahavas Golda’s recent Shabbaton was nothing short of magical. The theme, “Find Your Inner Star,” encouraged the girls to uncover and celebrate their unique talents, and every moment of the weekend was filled with excitement and discovery.

Whether it was the colorful paint party, where creativity took center stage, or the lively cooking competition that brought out everyone’s inner chef, the energy and enthusiasm were contagious.

The highlight of Shabbos was the presence of the beloved storyteller, Rebbee Hill. With his captivating stories and unparalleled way of bringing tales to life, the girls were kept spellbound.

As the Shabbaton wrapped up, the excitement continued with a raffle, giving the girls a chance to win a USB loaded with all of Rebbee Hill’s recordings. It was a perfect way to keep the memories of the weekend alive.
