NCSY GIVE WEST: Day #1

giveusa July 7, 2015

Welcome to NCSY GIVE WEST 2015!

Can you believe it?! It’s here! All of the NCSY GIVE West planes landed safely today into Phoenix International Airport and the summer is finally underway. Once all of the NCSYers were shuttled to the Country Suites Inn Hotel in Phoenix, we were greeted with a delicious lunch and Human Bingo Ice-Breaker! Learning about each other was fun and easy in this interactive game. We then enjoyed free time in the afternoon getting to know each other, swimming in the pool, chilling around the hotel, and unpacking our things. We joined back together for a GIVE WEST Orientation, letter writing exercise, and a yummy dinner from Imperial Diner. Following dinner, we played an amazing game of NCSY GIVE WEST Speed Dating to get to know one another even better. We ended the night early giving everyone time to unpack and rest up for our exciting day tomorrow at the Grand Canyon! A big thank you to Yaakov & Talia Borenstein for the yummy food today and to all of our amazing NCSY GIVE WEST advisors and staff for their passion and help. We cannot wait for day #2!
