Starting July 27 till September 2/3 there will be_like last year, older bochurim running a canteen style Cafe at Jiminy peak for all the Jewish families that come by in the summer. I'm aware that there will be daily minyanim there at least throughout those dates.

P.s. The guys running it this year are good friends of mine.
