Organizers are gambling that when their Jews wander back out of the Nevada
desert after the three-day event, they'll be more inspired to forge stronger
connections to Judaism.

JFNA Briefings and Communications
For Federations to remain central
to the Jewish community at-large, they have GOT to recruit young, quality talent
. There is no question to me -- having experienced the positive charge of energy
that has been surging among a crowd of 1,300 Jewish young adults since
yesterday's opening event -- that this talent
exists.
