DJ Avraham Productions ushered in the Lag BaOmer energy for a wide mix of Kew Gardens Hills’ Jewish community at the Motzaei Shabbos bonfire hosted in the courtyard of TOV Bet Midrash on 68th Drive and 147th Street. Rabbi Menashe Tzadka, mara d’asra, kept a feverish ruach going all night long by continuously exhibiting tremendous simchah amongst all ages and demographics of his mispallelim as the fire burned bright in the night's sky. As the only community-wide hilulah in the area that night, a larger than usual crowd partook in the celebration. I was joined by fellow Queens Shmira members to provide street closures at Main Street and 147th Street as well as site security. A tasty seudas melaveh malkah catered by Meal Mart on Main Street was provided after the outdoor dancing concluded
