Yaakov Kaminetsky is 21 years old and is currently enjoying his 6th summer on NCSY Kollel. He attended DRS and KBY and will be in YU this upcoming year. This is Yaakov’s 2nd year as a Madrich.
Yaakov’s Chaburah is made up of 6 of the best guys around: Meir Weiss from Bergenfield (Heichal Hatorah); Shimon Staum from Teaneck (Heichal Hatorah); Avi Ash from Cedarhurst (DRS); Eli Rockoff from West Hempstead (DRS); Pinny Balsam from North Woodmere (YFR); and Shai Englander from Lawrence (YFR).
This summer, Yaakov’s chaburah will be focusing on in depth analysis of basic sugyas relating to limud Hatorah, mitzvos in general, and tefilla . They will be learning about a variety of topics including Birkas Hatorah, mitzvos tzrichos kavanna, osek bmitzva patur min hamitzvah, and much, much more. The goal of the learning is to uncover the depth and profundity contained within these basic Torah concepts.
The summer has been great so far and it should only get better from here!
