The
pinnacle Adventure Rabbi experience is to gather a group from
your community at a retreat center or lodge with access to
trails, lakes, gardens or hills. Away from the pace of our
frenetic lifestyles, we slow down and are able to focus and
recognize the awe inspiring moments, places, and people that
fill our lives. What a wonderful experience to build community
and re-energize our connection to Judaism.
Rabbi
Jamie Korngold is a magical community builder, creating varied
opportunities for people to connect with themselves, each
other and God. Her retreats can be geared for all ages.
All
programs are customized for the group and can be done year
