To strengthen the ties between native Baltimorean young adults in Israel with our sister city, Ashkelon, the ASSOCIATED and MASA cosponsored a night in the desert. Baltimoreans, or more accurately, Pikesvillians from various MASA programs came together with peer alonim (people who immigrated to Israel) living in Ashkelon. The idea was see if the group had chemistry and to brainstorm ideas on how we could begin building a person to person relationship between the two cities. No other Federation has tried this before, and the majority of the participants present seemed excited about the prospect. They hope to create a legacy project for future Baltimore/MASA participants.
