End of School Year Does Not Mean End of Activities at Temple


Friday, May 4th Folk Service 5:30*
Saturday, May 5th, Bat Mitzvah of Rachel Norotsky, 10 a.m.
Sunday, May 6th, The Wholesale Klezmer Band in concert from 6:30-9:00

Wednesday, May 9th, the entire Jewish community is invited to celebrate Lag B’Omer at Oakledge Park from 4:30-Dusk; dinner will be served.

May 12th – Teacher Appreciation Shabbat and last official day of Religious School

May 19th Aleinu  at the home of Louise Stoll and Marc Monheimer. For those of you not familiar with our Aleinu series, we gather in a member’s home on a Saturday evening, do Havdallah, have some drinks and dessert, and have a guest speaker on an interesting Jewish topic. On May 19th I’m happy to say we have Temple member, Shelagh Shapiro, who hosts a radio show and podcast called “Write the Book” in which she interview authors, poets, literary agents and others involved in the field of literature. Shelagh herself is a published author. I’m sure it will be a most fascinating evening. 

1 special concert coming up on 2 dates:
Sunday, May 20, 2012, 4:00 PM: Temple Sinai, 500 Swift Street, South Burlington
Sunday, June 3, 2012, 4:00 PM:  Ohavi Zedek Synagogue, 188 N. Prospect Street, Burlington
Open My Lips:  Sacred Music from 1600 to Today

Next time you’re in Temple, stop by the Art Exhibit outside the 7th Grade classroom and see what the students have created as part of their Holocaust studies unit.
