Capturing Eilat

Eidah Daled enjoyed a unique peula (activity) today called Capturing Eilat.

During Milchemet Hashichrur, the War of Independence, the last operation was to capture the Negev, represented here by Eilat. It was called Mivza Ovdat.

As part of this operation, Eidah Daled campers were split up into "brigades". Each brigade has to successfully complete three "operations" at the ropes course, all of which require group cooperation and strategy. The first team to complete the operations and fly their flag from the zip line is the winner.
