Celebrate 50 Years of the Israeli Scouts Friendship Caravan!

After a three-year hiatus, the Israeli Scouts are coming back to the US! The Tzofim Friendship Caravan is celebrating over 50 years of bringing excitement, energy and friendship to North America through friendship and performance!

Each Caravan is made up of a group of five girls and five boys and their two leaders. They are chosen to be members of the Caravan based on their maturity, fluency in English, and of course their talent in the performing arts. After several rounds of competitive auditions and interviews, the scouts spend a year training and rehearsing for their exciting summer in North America. Each troupe of scouts criss-crosses North America all summer, acting as as emissaries and sharing their lives in Israel through song, dance and story. The show features songs in Hebrew, English and Yiddish, with the Scouts performing dressed in their official uniforms, Middle Eastern garb, festive blue-and-white outfits and attire characteristic of shtetl life.

This year, we are excited to bring Caravan Yovel to Greater Raleigh! With the pent-up demand for this unique, family-friendly event, we wanted to make sure there were plenty of opportunities for you to see it. There will be two public performance opportunities:
