Greetings,
Join us tomorrow night (2/16) at 7pm to celebrate the kick-off of a new column in the Jewish Advocate dedicated to highlighting the voices of young adult Jews, find out more about the column, how to submit pieces, and just have some good fun on the Cambridge side of the river! RSVP and get the party location by e-mailing anniedfox@gmail.com
Coming soon is Purim, the Jewish celebration of ridiculous reversals, commemorating the deliverance of the Jewish people in ancient Persia from the evil Haman’s plot to kill them all. Join us on Saturday February 28th for costumed festivities at Temple Beth Zion and Saturday March 6th at the Workmen’s Circle for their annual fun and fabulous Gragger/Noisemaker Party (more details to follow next week).
Until Later,
Alix, Annie, Margie, and Michelle
P. S. Did you become a member of the Moishe Kavod House last year and are wondering whether its time to renew? Haven’t joined yet but want to know how? Membership is a key way for us each to claim our stake in our community and to ensure that Moishe/Kavod House reflects democracy and transparency. For those who joined last fall/winter, the deadline for membership renewal will be March 7, 2010 – our 2nd annual membership meeting. The meeting will be 4-6pm followed by dinner. For those who joined late in the year (for example, in preparation for the June retreat), you have already paid for half the year, so your dues for March 7 will be $25 (or $18 for low income/student). Annual dues are $50 or $36 for low-income/student members. To renew, write out a check to Moishe Kavod House and mail to 165 Winthrop Rd. Apt B, Brookline, MA 02445 c/o Alix Zamansky OR pay online through PayPal, link found at http://www.kavodhouse.com/resources/membership. To join for the first time, you must also complete the membership form, found via the same address. Thanks!
