BSTYG

Shalom!

During the month of February the youth group had a "Lets Chill" lounge lunch on the 3rd. We watched a movie while enjoying pizza and a delicious bowl of ice cream.

There was a board meeting on Sunday, February 24th where the board members of the youth group discussed key issues about upcoming events, such as the Purim Carnival and Mitzvah Day. The youth group planned out the rest of the year and especially the Purim Carnival, which is run by our 8-12th graders. The Purim carnival, on March 16th, will be the best yet, according to some of the members. The members, who are getting prizes, are ecstatic about the success of the upcoming carnival. The night before Purim the youth group will be having dinner and a havdallah service, baking cupcakes, hanging out and getting ready for PURIM!!

On March 2nd there will be a lounge lunch for BSTYG in order to organize the raffle prizes and get ready for the carnival.

NFTY-Ger's annual Hagigah Kallah will be the weekend of March 7-9 at Temple Shaari Emeth in Manalapan NJ. Hagigah Kallah is the arts Kallah in which the whole weekend consists of art projects. This is different from other events because participants will be hosted in the homes of congregants. This is one of the many events NFTY-Ger holds throughout the year.

SAVE THE DATE! On Sunday April 13th BSTYG'S 8-12 graders, will be hosting Mitzvah Day, which will be a celebration of Israel's 60th Birthday.

On Friday May 16th our 8-12th graders will be holding our annual creative service. The youth group is thrilled for the upcoming events to come. It's never too late to join BSTYG.
