The secretive panel and Pesach is around the corner

Purim Recap

Thank you to all those who joined and participated in our Purim activities. It was great fun seeing everyone in costumes and having a grand old time!

In response to major dissapointment on Rabbi Shemtov's costume on Wednesday night we are taking ideas for next year so we can really go over the top! Please click here with your ideas. There will be a highly secretive panel of judges deciding which idea will really fit the bill.

Purim in Candy Land was totally enjoyed by young and old! Mega Shout Out to Yaakova Stein for pulling all those details together. Rabbi Yudi you outdid yourself on the Megilla Readings. Rabbi Dov and Richard, thanks for allowing us to TAKE OUT our celphones during the event! And the all-time-famous-Rabbi-Dov's-PUNCH... L'CYHAYIM to a year of continuos JOY on that! Alan, Anne and Amy did a great job on making it all right!

We had such awesome feedback - just to share a few...
