Mosdos Rashbi are busying preparing for the annual major hachnasas orchim, the arrival of hundreds of thousands of people during Lag B’Omer. Food preparations for thousands and thousands are well underway. An enormous tent has been set into place for men and women. It will accommodate hundreds of visitors at one time, permitting them to sit and rest in a comfortable atmosphere as air conditioning has been installed as well.

Organizers are hopeful they will be ready to distribute over 200,000 portions to visitors.
