How you can attend the US Embassy's July 4 bash
If you'd like to attend the US Embassy's July 4 bash, and you don't have the Vitamin P required to get a ticket, don't despair. This year, five pairs of tickets are being raffled off.The US Embassy in Tel Aviv announced Wednesday that for the second time in American history, it is giving away tickets to “the traditional Independence Day party” held annually at the residence of the US ambassador in Herzliya.I haven't checked yet, but I assume that the contest prizes do not include airfare for those of you abroad.
Each year around Independence Day, the ambassador hosts a crowded bash on the sea-side lawn of his home that draws a who’s-who of the country’s politicians, diplomats, IDF officers and journalists, and features such July 4 staples as fireworks, beer and bluegrass music.
The US ambassador, as well as the president and the prime minister, typically address the gathering.
This year, five pairs of tickets will be raffled off as part of a contest to identify blurred images of American sites, personalities and historical events that appear on the embassy’s Facebook page.
Those who answer correctly will enter the raffle for the party that will take place on July 3.
