Dear Sisters,
On Sunday, June 9, Sisterhood held our Annual Meeting, Installation of our Board of Directors and recognition of our Aware Honorees at McLain’s Bakery. A big thanks to Chairs Kristi Kanarek and Shanny Morgenstern for their wonderful choice of venue, the beautiful program guide, delicious food and decorations! The well-deserving awards to Kristi Kanarek for Service to Sisterhood, Alissa Yamnitz for Emerging Leader, and Rita Sudhalter, Shoshana Honoree, were beautifully presented by friends, Shari Barr, Shannon Maker and Carol Schwartz. Special guest, Sonia Warshawski (Big Sonia) was there to honor Rita, whose parents were in the ghetto and camps with Sonia. Mazel Tov to our new Board of Directors and todah rabah, to Rabbis Kramer and Brazner for their part in the Installation and for always being present and supportive of Sisterhood.
During the event, we highlighted the many ways Sisterhood serves the Congregation, the Community and Sisterhood members through Sisterhood community service projects, Girls Night Out, Yalla! dinners, blood drives, FUNdraising projects and Sundays with Sisterhood (to name a few!). Now we turn our attention to another year. Our newsletter, the Connection, is key to staying in touch and informed each month. Special thanks to Jody Cosner for putting it together for us. We appreciate your support and remind you to please join Sisterhood this year.
Sisterhood wishes everyone a fun and safe 4th of July, as we celebrate the freedoms that we have in America. Enjoy your summer!
L’shalom,
Barbie Rogoff, Sisterhood President
