About Israel in the Ballpark
For over 30 years, the San Francisco Jewish community has celebrated Israel's Independence Day. This day expresses our connection with Israel, our solidarity with its people, and the central role Israel plays in our Jewish identity. It is also a wonderful opportunity to come together as a community and showcase our achievements.
This event, which takes place this year on Sunday June 6, 2004 in San Francisco, attracts attendees from all over the Bay Area, including the North Bay, East Bay, Peninsula, San Jose, and Sacramento areas. This is a day that attracts long-time Jewish Bay Area residents as well as newer arrivals from Israel, the former Soviet Union, and other countries. It is a day for people of all ages - adults, children, teens, college students, young adults and seniors. In recent years this event has become the single largest annual gathering of Jews in the Bay Area, last year attracting 5,000 families and approximately 12,000 people.
This
year, Israel in the Ballpark will take place at SBC Park (formerly Pac
Bell). This move was made to accommodate the growth of this event and to ensure
that all who want to attend can do so. Our new venue offers exciting possibilities.
The key to the success of the day is the maximum participation of members of the community, local Jewish organizations and synagogues.

We can't wait to see you at Israel in the Ballpark!
