Upcoming events:

The Sisterhood Campership Fund provides money to help send a temple child to camp who might otherwise not be able to do so. The Rabbi is given the money and he is the only one who knows the identity of the family. Our Seeds to the Future Fund, which provides scholarship money for a Temple child to attend religious school, is handled in the same confidential manner. Please remember these funds when you are giving donations.

The Judaica shop can provide you with lots of ideas for gift giving for all occasions. Call Leah @ 634-1338 for assistance.

Jewish Education Scholarship

The Sisterhood of Temple Beth Sholom has created and is sponsoring a new directed fund to assist students in the Congregation who are actively pursuing a Jewish education. "The Seeds for the Future Fund" will award scholarships that will be based on dedication to learning, commitment to our Congregation and the Jewish community, and financial need. The Sisterhood welcomes all donations during this economically challenging time when the "growing" of Jewish young people is more important than ever.

 

The Chai Society, sometimes referred to as the "Empty Nesters," is a group of congregants whose children have grown up and finished school.  Thus, members may actually have some extra time to do things as a group! We have been described as welcoming and a lot of fun!

If you are Fifty-ish, we would love to have you as a member of the TBS Chai Society.  We are a dynamic group and you can add to our collective energy and spirit.

For more information, call Elaine Kaplan @ 638-0809 or Brenda Rutstein @ 638-9023.

APRIL SHOWERS BRING MORE BSTYG

Can anyone else believe that Passover is right around the corner? BSTYG is ready for it!

March brought us tons of fun with NFTY-GER’S Hagigah Kallah in New Brunswick, NJ and our Purim Carnival on Sunday, March 20th! BSTYG would whole-heartedly like to thank everyone who was involved in the success of the carnival, including Brotherhood (the food was delish!), Sisterhood, TBS Religious School, Rabbi Fass, Cantor Schwartz, and the TBS Youth Committee! OH! And thanks to all of the kids and parents who came out to support your favorite BSTYGgers!

April will be just as much fun as we open our first event of the month to the region of NFTY-GER with our Limousine Scavenger Hunt (April 2nd!) and continue interacting with NFTY-GER participants by attending an entire Northern sub-regional event on April 9th!

We’re also getting into our sales pitch and will be creating sweatshirts for BSTYG supporters! If this is something you might be interested in—please contact akw925@gmail.com for more details!

Don’t worry JR BSTYG and Club 45! We haven’t forgotten you! March ended with a great event at the Palisades Center—our kids are quite the gamers and we had a competitive sparring among the grades! Look for e-mails about upcoming events for the rest of the year!

If you have any questions about Senior or Junior Youth Group or know of someone who may be interested in joining, please don’t hesitate to e-mail Amanda Weiss, Youth Director at akw925 @ gmail.com.

Social Action…Coming Attractions

Our Yom Kippur food drive was outstanding! In this tough economy we still have collected the equivalent of 5,000 pounds of food. What a way to start the year! Our efforts to feed the hungry continue this month.

Our ‘Special Programs for Special Populations’ program has begun with our Shabbat service. It is such a joy to see our guests dance and sing and feel a part of their Jewish culture.

If you are available to donate your time or provide some of the needed items for these events, please contact Tobi Mathios at the above mentioned email address and phone number. A donation to our temple’s Social Action Fund helps to support these programs. Additional programs are held for Hanukkah, Purim and Passover.

Thanks in advance for your continued generosity.
