Summer University, Wengen

24th August – 1st September 2002

The biggest gathering of young Jewish adults in Europe was held in the beauty of Switzerland. Looking back on the past event, we are able to say that this event had a major impact on SUJS. The close work with www.summer-u.com as well as EUJS was of greater success. We were proud to welcome 485 participants from around the world. Also present were guest speakers that are well known for both their knowledge and importance within the Jewish world. Not only was it the BIGGEST event that SUJS ever organized, but also the BEST!! We were able to establish many new and precious contacts, and witnessed an incredible bonding of all our unions. It was great to see all these things happening and felt honoured by the positive resonance we received!
Shall the spirit live on!! We loved it!

Wintermachane Scuol

21th December- 28th December 2003

We had a blast! About 100 young adults had more than snowfun this year! With our traditional Swiss night we set new standards! At Midnight we rented the cable car and ate Raclette in the middle of the darkest sky inside an iglu. What a terrific view we had. And sledging downhill followed by 50 sledges was even more fun!
