This week, I had the opportunity to speak at the Boulder JCC’s Ignite Chanukah Event. I gave a 5-minute Ignite talk entitled “The Frozen Chosen : Jews in Antarctica”. The talk, and rest of the event went great, with about 100 people attending, and food/drinks aplenty. Thanks to Michael and the Boulder JCC staff for hosting, Boulder Jewish News for covering the event, and the rest of the sponsors.
Related, here are two blog posts about my Chanukah celebrations on the ice:

- Happy Chanukah From The World’s Southernmost Game of Dreidel

For me Antarctica seems like the final frontier – not nearly enough is publicized about the place year I’m sure it has a lot of great things to experience.
