The Star to Star Memorial Ride honors the late Louis Nemtsov, the founder and first president of the Star of David Bikers, who passed away in 2009.
At the end of the ride, the general public will join us at Congregation Beth El for the festival, which will include music, Israeli dancing, food and drinks as well as sand art, face painting, and other fun activities for the kids. There will also be dozens of vendors exhibiting art, crafts and jewelry.

In conjunction with our ride and festival, we also raise awareness and funds for Magen David Adom (http://www.mdais.com/). MDA is Israel’s ambulance, blood-services, and disaster-relief organization, serving as emergency medical first responders for the state’s 8 million people.
For this event, we have teamed up with the Bucks County chapter of American Friends of Magen David Adom (AFMDA, https://www.afmda.org/), which is the largest supporter of MDA worldwide.
The registration fee for vendors is $36 for an approximately 10’x10’ space. You need to provide your own table and chairs. Electricity is available in a limited number of spaces for a $5 fee. All exhibits MUST remain intact until the Festival closes at 4:00 PM. Setup will be on Sunday morning from 10:00 AM till 10:45 AM.
