2017 Maccabiah Applications Now Due

We are quickly approaching our final deadline for USA's best Jewish track and field Athletes. We currently have provided early selections for 15 athletes (whos names will be released shortly on my blog as the official announcement). Please stay tuned.  Our current focus is our last minute rush to locate and identify the best of the best.  If you know someone that may qualify, please have them apply at www.MaccabiUSA.com
Looking at our current applicants, we will certainly have a competitive squad for this Summer's Maccabiah in Israel from July 5-19. 
L'Shana Tova to everyone that celebrates. Have a healthy and happy new year.

Maccabiah USA 20th Games update for Track and Field

One more year before applications will be made available for the 20th Games in Israel for Track and Field.

 

In the meantime, I have so many wonderful stories to share about Maccabiah and the impacts we have made on so many athletes.  At the past Games in 2013, with your help, I was able to sponsor 75 athletes. We've created friendships, appreciations and a love for Israel.  We are now looking to start our fundraising effort for the 20th Maccabiah Games.  Will you help me with obtain a 'running' start?

 

Applications will be available in the near future, but the fundraising site is now eager for sponsors.  Even a small amount is very appreciative.  I would even consider it a 40th birthday present. Please visit my Facebook post for the link to the fundraising page or go to: http://www.maccabiusa.com/sports_main/track-field/

 

Thank you so much for your continued support-
