Don’t Passover the Island

We live in a huge melting pot of a city, and our cultural, political, and religious souls thank us for it every day. But maybe our BlackBerries don’t, because your rainbow coalition of friends means hundreds of virtual red ribbons tied around your fingers in an effort to remember each holiday and observance. Good thing you have us to keep your schedule flowing smoothly. Today marks the second day of Passover, the Jewish holiday that commemorates the Israelites’ liberation from slavery, and to observe it, Jungle Island is offering adventure, discounts, and good eats. Through Friday, you can see animal shows, feed the kangaroos, or whoosh down the Hippo Slide, all while mingling and learning something new about an ancient tradition, at this year’s Family Passover Adventure.

Jungle Island will be jumping with Jewish music, certified Passover sodas, and glatt kosher barbecue all week. Your friends in Smalltown, USA, could never have a Benetton-ad variety of friends like yours, so embrace it and celebrate! Visit www.chabadtodayflorida.com for discounts and advance tickets.
