Danny Weinberger, the fourth year veteran, has returned to be a madrich on NCSY Kollel for the second time in a row. After shteiging away in Frisch and Shaalvim, he made his way to the University of Pennsylvania, where he tries his best to spread the light of Torah that he gained from his summers on Kollel.
His chabura is composed of six super-stars who attend Yeshiva University affiliated High Schools, with three from each of MTA and YULA. Starting off the MTA trio from Teaneck, NJ is Noam Sheffey. Noam is always locked in and engaged, ready to take our chabura to the next level. Feel free to be amazed when you test him on Super Bowl statistics. Next up is Ben Safier from Bergenfield, NJ. The motivation and consistency that Ben brings to the chabura is unparalleled. In addition, his easy going attitude enables the chabura to run smoothly. Rounding off the MTA crew from Teaneck, NJ is Gavi Pinsky. Gavi is a Torah savant and is most likely to be found during chaburas being mechavein to Rishonim. The three YULA members all represent the community of Los Angeles, California. The trio includes Moshe Uretsky, a true mevakeish who inspires the chabura with his desire to keep growing. They also have Raphi Mark, a professional air-sipper who never fails to enlighten the chabura with a Hasgacha Pratis story or Thank You Hashem moment. Last but not least they have Elisha Feldman (AKA danger). Elisha is the rock of the bura, as his contagious smile always keeps everyone happy.
This summer they are learning Shabbos sugyas. Instead of delving into intricacies of the melachos and the Shamor side of Shabbos, they are spending their time on the positive commandments of shabbos, the Zachor aspect. The different sugyas range from To’ameah, which kicks in right before Shabbos begins, all the way to Melava Malka, escorting out the Shabbos Queen with celebration as she departs.
The summer has been amazing so far and the boys cannot wait for what’s more to come!
