thete were some incredibly kind warm intellegent people and there were some rude people who ask in sensative unintelligent questions. it's politically Zionist which it would be better in my mind to seperste the two so one can observe religiously without any political alliance or affiliation suggested . The kiddish food was amazing! The Rabbis and youth programs were outstanding and wonderful! if you grew up in a religously obsetvant Jewish family and know how everything works with shul and the culture and have always know you are Jewish and didn't get told ad an adult and are willing to pay big bucks to join the club like 1000-2000 a year and plan to really be involved and spend a lot of time there then this is the place for you.
