The purpose of the event is to bring together as many USYers as possible for a night of fun, making memories, and getting to know each other. It’s an opportunity to create inside jokes, foster new friendships, strengthen bonds, and build a community where everyone feels safe and included – all under the watchful eye of trained staff.
Broomball is a local late-night ice-rink sports game. We rent out a private hour session after the rink closes. This USY event is a whole evening with multiple bus stops, featuring a fun activity, food, and Broomball.
We begin by boarding a school bus and heading over to a local Escape Room. We do an icebreaker in the lobby and then break the group into teams. After we were done at the escape room, we get back on the bus and head over to Denny’s for a late-night snack. Each kid is given a set budget and reminded to order only vegetarian options.
Then we board the bus and head to the ice rink. At the end, the bus brings the teens back to the synagogue for pick up!
