Men's Club - January 2019

Men’s Club is continuing another busy year with a focus on expanding our reach to include younger families.

EBJC’s first Hannukah Family Sweetheart Dance was a success with 70 people attending. A number of non-EBJC families also attended. The dance got a front page photograph in the Sentinel along with other photos. Children, parents and grandparents, all had loads of fun.

We plan to host another family oriented event in the spring, so please be on the outlook for information about it. If you have an idea for a family friendly program, please let us know. We will be happy to assist in bringing your idea to fruition.

Men’s Club and Sisterhood members had a fun time at our Dec. 15 Comedy night.

On Sun., Jan. 13 Men’s Club hosts an all day Blood Drive. Please sign up for the Blood Drive at ebjc.org/blood or call Ron Berger at (732) 545-0793 and do a life saving mitzvah.

Our annual Giants Brunch is Sun., Jan. 27 at 11 am with Billy Taylor. Cost for adults before Jan. 20 is $20. Signups are at ebjc.org/taylor.

The World Wide Wrap will be on Sun., Feb. 3 at 8:15 am when we join our Men’s Clubs colleagues around the world observing the mitzvah of Tefillin.

Our second Kabbalat Shabbat with Mayor Cohen is Feb. 8. Services start at 6 pm with dinner at 7 pm. Sign up at ebjc.org/kabbalat.

While we already have a busy calendar, we are always seeking ideas for new and interesting events. You are welcome to join the fun in arranging our programming. Do you have an idea for an event or activity? Attend any Board meeting and share your idea. Our next two are on Jan. 14 and Feb. 11 at EBJC at 8:30 pm. All are welcome to attend.

We invite interested members to join Men’s Club. Only a modest amount of time and effort is required. If you can help us run just one event, we would be delighted to have you join us. We can use all kinds of help. No matter your skills, interests and availability, Men’s Club has something to fit your schedule and background. Contact us anytime at mensclub@ebjc.net.

Shalom,
Arthur Fliegelman and Sheldon Horowitz
