Spotlight on...
Youth programming! Please note that there will again be 3 sets of kids groups, beginning at 10:30am Shabbat morning. The tots will be in the partitioned section of the Chadar Tikvah, and groups for both K-2 and grades 3-4 will meet in the social hall. The groups will be run by a combination of parents and Ohev teens, as well as paid staff. We will provide snacks and games. Please note that all children are expected to be in groups or sitting quietly with an adult beginning at 10:30. There will be one staff member available starting at 9:15am in the social hall for supervised play.
