Northeast Queens Jewish Community Council Member Organizations Marching in the 2007 Salute to
Israel Parade, Sunday, May 6
Northeast Queens Vice Presidents Corinne Steel
and Ethel Levine led a group of several hundred marchers at the
Salute to Israel Parade. A recurring highlight: the participation of
Jesse Perlstein, 102 years young, from Marathon Jewish Center and a
long-time volunteer at the Samuel Field Y, who led our delegation.
Marchers from 11 northeast Queens
congregations, the Samuel Field Y and Parker Jewish Institute
carried the special theme banners (in addition to synagogue and
organization banners). Photos that follow all courtesy of Joseph
Levine, NEQJCC.
