On Thursday, 4 Iyar, the Lone Soldier Center in Memory of Michael Levin will be hosting the largest Yom HaAtzmaut party for soldiers in Israel as we celebrate 70 years of Israel’s Independence! Two barbecues will take place for 2,000 lone soldiers in Jerusalem Gan Sacher Park and at the Namal Tel Aviv in the Archa Wedding Hall.

The events will take place between 11:00AM and 5:00PM during which 400 kilograms of meat and 500 liters of beer will be consumed thanks to generous donations and a partnership with Beer Bazaar. In addition, thousands of side dishes and desserts will be prepared by communities in Beit Shemesh and Ramat Beit Shemesh.

Parents of fallen lone soldiers and prominent members of the Jerusalem municipality will join us at the Gan Sacher barbecue. The event is not open to the public and is for lone soldiers and invitees only.
