FROM THE GIFT SHOP
The annual Chanukah Bazaar is back, and this year we
have assembled a terrific array of merchandise with everything
you need for a festive Chanukah season. Join us on Sunday,
December 2 from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm to discover:
• Decorations at affordable prices in every shape and size!
• Candles in fun colors from the famous Safed Candle
Factory, bees wax - and the cheap ones too!
• Dreidels wood, plastic, metallic, and even the new
translucent ones. (Robinn thinks they spin the best!)
• Chocolate Gelt milk, pareve and bittersweet
• Chanukah Menorahs modern and traditional styles
• Puzzles and games including the “hottest” new games and
crafts for the season
Come see our elegant jewelry and wonderful gifts you will be proud
to give to friends and family. This year, activities for families
with children will be offered from 11:00 am to noon.
A latke lunch will begin at noon and feature gourmet coffee.
Check out the preview sale at the Supper and Cinema
night on Saturday, December 1.
Bring your shopping list, your friends and your neighbors
and help make this year’s Bazaar a roaring success. We are
also open during the business week. All profits benefit our
congregation. See you there!
