Sisterhood annual paid-up membership dinner
12-03-2009
More than 70 Beth Shalom Sisterhood members came together in November for
our annual paid-up membership dinner, noshing on kosher Chinese cuisine,
bidding on our “Bears for Life” centerpieces, renewing old friendships, and
generally enjoying a relaxing evening out. Our membership and programming
chairs are busy sorting through the many wonderful ideas submitted by those
attending for their ideal Sisterhood program.
If you missed the dinner because you haven’t yet joined Sisterhood, remember
that it is never too late to become part of our “Garden of Friends”! Dues
are the lifeline of our organization and help us provide so many extra for the
Beth Shalom community, including unsponsored kiddushes, Simchat Torah
treats, sponsorship of a visiting rabbinical student, We Care packages for college
students, and more.
In just a few more days, Hannukah will be here. Don’t miss our annual
Hannukah party on December 6 (free to Sisterhood families—yet another membership
benefit!), and B’nai Mitzvah project showcase. Sisterhood’s gift shop will
be open during the party, so pick up some Hannukah candles and gifts for families
and friends. See the ad in this edition of the Scroll for party details.
Last month I wrote about trying new experiences. If you haven’t done so
before and would like to take part in Sisterhood Shabbat (January 29-30), in
Hebrew or English, just let me know by leaving a message for Sisterhood at 410-
531-5115 ext. 324 or by e-mailing sisterhoodbethshalom@gmail.com. And of
course, all those who have participated in the past are invited to join us again.
