New York Celebrates Israel's 60th Birthday -Benjamin Sarlin
Thousands of New Yorkers turned out today to celebrate Israel's 60th birthday at the Salute to Israel Parade along Fifth Avenue.
Folk dancers, high school marching bands, and singers entertained the crowd. One performance that drew particular attention came from the dozens of shofar blowers who filled the air with trumpetlike blasts from their instruments, made from rams' horns.

I love the idea of a shofar marching band.
I have written a book about shofar called, "Hearing Shofar: The Still Small Voice of the Ram's Horn." Your readers can find it at www.HearingShofar.com. Then they can form their own marching band.
Nice...thanks for stopping by this blog.
