“Tell your children about it, and let your children tell theirs, and their children, the next generation.” Joel 1:3

Your Men’s Club hopes that your High Holy Day services were spiritually rewarding and thought provoking. I want to extend special thanks to the team of ushers who gave of themselves and time away from their families to help make these services special.

As for recent events, on September 6th, a group of us visited Citi Field to watch our bumbling Mets beat the Chicago Cubs on what turned out to be a gorgeous, sunny, Sunday afternoon. The weather reminded me of an October play-off game. (Ah we can dream.)

Your Men’s Club Board has been planning the following other seasonal activities:

Our sports agenda includes on-going Sunday morning basketball under the direction of Chet Greenspan..

Thinking of basketball, come with us to the Garden as the NY Knicks play an exhibition game against Israel’s legendary basketball team, Maccabi Elite Tel Aviv on Sunday afternoon, October 18th. Proceeds from this game go to Migdal Ohr, Israel’s largest youth village that benefits orphaned, abused, underprivileged, and immigrant children. Information about this event will continue to be circulated via email blasts and the green sheets.

The big news is the acceptance of our invitation to Congressman Pete King who will be speaking to us on Sunday morning, October 18th at 9:45am. Congressman King, who has represented the 3rd Congressional district since 1993 and is a ranking member of the Committee on Homeland Security, will speak to us on a number of important issues of the day related to homeland security and the economic recovery. So come join us. For planning purposes, we need your rsvp by Friday October 16th to: mgminsky@aol.com .

Finally, don’t forget our first Monday of the month sponsorship of Minyan with our bagel and lox breakfast or our Tefillin workshop later in the Fall.

So check your green sheets for further information on any of these and other upcoming events.

We look forward to your support of our upcoming activities.
