090616 Israeli Dancing, Party

Hello Gainesville Area Israeli Dancers and Friends,

Israeli Dancing at B'nai Israel on Thursday.

Sunday night, on the longest day of the year, come to a
dance social at our new location at 601 S Main Street.
At 6:30 there will be a short lesson followed by dancing
from 7:30 until dark, about 9:30. There will be a mix of
mostly slower music, suitable for all types of swing and
other social dances.

Looks like we are going to get a pretty skyline of oil
platforms off our gulf shore in Florida. If your boat sinks,
you will be only a short swim away from the nearest one.
If you want to help oil companies make more money and put
off the growth of renewable energy sources, do not sign this.
Otherwise, you can sign this. I did.

The 2009 Mosaic Jewish Outdoor Club's International Event is
Labor Day Weekend in southern California. This is a great chance
to enjoy the outdoors and meet Jewish people from all over and
lots of knowledgeable people. I highly recommend you go if you can.
See www.MosaicOutdoor.org for details.

Happy Dancing,
Andy

5. Fri-Sun 7/31-8-2 - Join Mosaic South Florida for Ichetucknee weekend

Tubing Trip Down the Ichetucknee River and More

When: Saturday, August 1 to Sunday, August 2, with optional Friday evening,
July 31, arrival. Meet at the hotel in Alachua, Florida by 4:00 pm on Saturday.

What: Join Mosaic members from around the region for a weekend full of fun
and sun. We will be staying in a hotel in Alachua, nearby the beautiful
Ichetucknee Springs State Park where we will start our tubing. Check in
both days is 3:00 pm, but if you get there earlier, you can always relax
around the pool. If you're joining us on Friday, arrival will be on your
own schedule. Anyone there in time can join the group for dinner.
We'll meet in the hotel lobby Saturday morning for breakfast and to organize
our day of canoeing. If you're joining us on Saturday, after checking in,
head out to the pool where we'll meet through the afternoon for a get-to-know
and snacks. Then we'll freshen up for dinner, as a group, at a local restaurant.
After dinner we'll head back to the hotel for Havdallah service, stargazing,
movies, games or a swim in the pool. Early Sunday morning we will have breakfast
at the hotel, then depart for the centerpiece activity of the weekend; the float
down the Ichetucknee River. Tubing on the crystal clear Ichetucknee River is a
unique experience in Florida. Nowhere else can one enjoy the outstanding scenic
qualities of the "Real Florida" while floating leisurely on a tube or float.
The pristine hardwood hammock, limestone outcrops, wildlife and serenity are
a combination of natural values enjoyed by thousands of tubers every year.
Bring snorkeling gear, and jump off your tube at any time into the refreshing
72 degree water to explore the Blue Hole or various springs along the way.
The entire float takes about 4 hours with a stop about 2/3 of the way through,
where our cars will be parked, to have lunch or snacks we bring or buy.
There are restrooms here and a snack bar. We should finish our tubing by about
2:30 p.m., meet for a late lunch/early dinner and arrive home by about 10:00 p.m.

Where: The Quality Inn in Alachua, Florida at exit #399 off I-75, 386-462-2244.

Bring: Clothing, toiletries, hat, sunscreen, bug spray, bathing suit. Optional
gear includes snorkeling gear, waterproof camera. You will also need money for
meals other than breakfast.

To keep the Ichetucknee River pristine, NO food or drink may be taken on the river.

Cost: One Night Fee - $40 for Mosaic members, $45 for non-members, double occupancy
per hotel room, in two double beds or a king. Add $28 to have your own room.
Two Night Fee - $68 for Mosaic Members, $73 for non-members, double occupancy.
Add $56 to have your own room both nights. Price includes hotel room, snacks
around pool, after dinner get together dessert/snacks, park entrance fee and
tube rental ($5 to $10 add'l for a double tube or raft instead of a single tube).
Complimentary deluxe continental breakfast provided by the hotel. Also, don't
forget to share expenses for gas and tolls with your carpool driver. Cost of
Canoe trip on Saturday is additional and is TBD at this time.
