APRIL –
28/6 Iyyar
Torah Study w/Rabbi Harkavy 10:00AM
Yom Ha'atzmaut (Independence day) - Iyar 4 - is celebrated on Thursday, April 26, 2012 when Israel turns 64 years old.
It commemorates May 14, 1948 (Iyar 5, 5708), when David Ben Gurion declared the independent state of Israel after the
British Mandate of Palestine ended.
On Yom Ha'atzmaut there is a tradition to have a picnic and barbeque in the parks and forests. In the evening, people celebrate in the streets with songs and dances, and balconies are decorated with Israeli flags. The design of the Israeli Flag is a blue Star of David (H: Magen David) in the middle between two blue horizontal lines on a white background. The blue represents the color of the sky. The star represents a shield that protects King David. The white represents purity.
