What a wonderful time we had this summer at Camp TBS.  Our two groups of “Lions” and “Bears” had six weeks of amazing units including camping week, a week at the zoo, a week in Hawaii and Olympics week.  This year, we have also partnered with Deer Mountain Day Camp and Chris Allen from DMDC came every week to facilitate an amazing sports clinic with our TBS campers.  Chris will continue coming to TBS throughout the year to do sports clinics with our three and four year olds.  Deer Mountain is also giving our TBS families whose children age out of our summer camp, a discount at Deer Mountain’s Freshman program, so if you have a child going into Kindergarten next year, call Roberta Katz at Deer Mountain for more information.

The teachers and I have all met over the summer to implement new and innovative ideas for our already great curriculum and we are excited to be starting off the new year with renewed energy.  In addition to our sports clinics, we will be continuing our Yoga program with Miss Robin and our “Brain Train” computer program with Miss Leslie.

Remember that you are all invited to join us for Children’s Services for Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur.   Children’s Services are at Temple Beth Sholom at 3:30 PM on the 1st day of Rosh HaShanah and on Yom Kippur.
I want to wish all of you a sweet New Year complete with good health and good things for all of your families.  May we all enjoy a year of peace.

B'Shalom,
Lori Scott
Nursery School Director


TBS Religious School…

A MESSAGE FROM OUR RELIGIOUS SCHOOL

‘Bruchim Habaim’ – Welcome Back!  

Shalom to all as we begin our new TBS Religious School year on Sunday, September 12th. This first day will include grades K – 7 (listed on 7th Gr. Sunday schedule in August handbook).  I look forward to greeting all of you at 9:30 AM at our “Back to School Breakfast”.
Please mark your calendars and include our new time schedule:

            SUNDAYS:                  9:30 – 12:00
            TUESDAYS:                4:15 – 5:45

An earlier dismissal during the school week will allow more time to accommodate the students’ homework and after school schedules and to enhance your child’s Religious School experience.
Our 2010-11 calendar is filled with many special events, trips, Shabbat dinners and family programs.  Please make sure to read my weekly YOM SH’LISHI (Tuesday) NEWSLETTER, which focuses on upcoming RS events and important information.  PARENTS – we encourage you to participate in our TBS Religious School events and programs. Bring your child to Shabbat and Holiday services and become part of our TBS community.

The Sounding of the Shofar at Rosh HaShanah wakes us up from our summer respite and gives us a fresh supply of spiritual energy.  Yom Kippur, our holiest holiday, is a day of reflection and atonement.
dance and sing in celebration.  Let’s join together as we all step into the New Year.      

The High Holy Days are coming very soon, and I invite all families to attend TBS services. 

Wishing all of you “L’Shana Tova U Metukah”, a sweet, healthy and happy New Year.

Marilyn Fellows
Educational Director, TBS Religious School

Adult Education at Temple Beth Sholom

By: Elaine Getz

    An oldie but goodie is back at Temple Beth Sholom. Remember when we had a bagel, coffee and learned something new and/or interesting on a Sunday morning? Well, adult education is back.  Come and spend an hour, once a month, learning and discussing some interesting topics. Drop off your kids at Hebrew school and stay a while. Or come and meet with some old or new friends.

Rabbi David Fass will be doing a 4-part program called Jewish Sex- Is There Such a Thing? Ten o'clock is the time on October 24, December 19, February 13, and April 10.

Cantor Sergei Schwartz will be sharing his expertize on all phases of music. Learn the history of the music we sing at services and on holidays. Learn some new melodies for songs you knew when you were a child.  The time is 10:00 and the dates are November 14, January 23, and March 13.

Come to one session or come to them all. All are welcome.

Have you ever thought you wanted to learn Yiddish? We are going to have a program called Yiddish 101.
There will be 8 sessions. Come and be part of the planning session on Monday evening, November 18 at 7:00 p.m.
