Pinchas shiva
Pinchas passed away peacefully at home on August 7th, 2010 at the age of 88.
The funeral was on the kibbutz on August 8th.

For those of you that are interested in seeing old pictures,
and condolences that people wrote you can go to the AC group on Facebook.

Once upon a time there was a 10th grade American High School program in Kfar Blum....
There was also a newsletter called the Fireside....
Unfortunately these are all things of the past, but, now we have the Internet! This is going to be an attempt to organize class lists, add on email addresses, and see where it all goes from there.

Please send me any email addresses you know, and I will add them to the lists. I am doing this in my free time, and for now the site is being hosted where I work. I will be happy to receive any suggestions, corrections, or additions.

bullet Kfar Blum Volunteers (and everything else) Web Site - This site was just born - any of you who were also volunteers, ulpan, habonim workshop or ex-Kfar Blum members or know of others who were please check out the site and send your name and email to: Michael Lewis   (As of 2002, there are no more volunteers on Kfar Blum)

bullet There also was an American Class program in Kibbutz Beit Hashita. They started in 1985 as our sister 11th grade program. In 1993 the programs were merged and they had both 10th and 11th grades. Unfortunately they also no longer exist - the second "Intifada" closed them down. You can check out their alumni list too (not sure if it is being updated).

bullet There was an American Class in Pardess Channa too, until 2002. They have a fledgling alumni web site, so if any of you have brothers or sisters who went there, maybe you can help them build their lists.

bullet BirthRight Israel provides a free gift of first time, peer group, 10 day educational trips to Israel for Jewish young adults ages 18 to 26. This is a great offer, that could be suitable for your brothers, sisters, cousins, children (yes, some of us are that old already!), etc...

What's changed here recently?
