ARCHIVES<br />
Above: Can you identify the people in this 1930s photograph donated by Burton and Michele Horwitz?<br />
by Harlan Shays, Archives Committee Chair<br />
HShays@nc.rr.com<br />
Earlier this year, the Beth Meyer Archives received<br />
a remarkable donation. Burton and Michele<br />
Horwitz located a photograph taken on the steps of<br />
our original freestanding building in the early<br />
1930’s. Previously, our only-known photo of the<br />
S. East Street structure was a well-known picture<br />
from the 1920’s showing all the students from the<br />
religious school posed on its steps.<br />
There are children in this 1930’s picture, too, but<br />
almost as many adults, so it may not have been<br />
taken at a religious school event. This photo also<br />
shows more of our Oakwood building, which stood<br />
on the east side of the street, just south of New<br />
Bern Avenue. The structure opened in the early<br />
1920’s, with the synagogue upstairs and a flat for<br />
the rabbi and family on the first floor. It was torn<br />
down decades ago, after the congregation moved to<br />
a new building in Cameron Park in 1951.<br />
While the names of most people in the photo are<br />
not currently known, two have been identified. The<br />
teenage boy second from left on the third step is<br />
Milton Dworsky, and the teenager behind the girl<br />
next to him is his older sister, Mildred “Mickey”<br />
Dworsky (later Amdursky). Both are descendants<br />
of Meyer Dworksy, who was honored when our<br />
congregation chose its current name.<br />
Ninety years later, the height of the building’s steps<br />
might be one of the most striking facets of the<br />
photo. With no banister in sight, it was not exactly a<br />
friendly portal for the very young, old, or disabled.<br />
Once inside, there was a full flight of interior stairs<br />
to climb to reach the second floor synagogue.<br />
If you have any additional information about this<br />
picture, or have other photos for donation or that<br />
we might borrow and scan, please contact the Beth<br />
Meyer office. Our thanks this month to Risa<br />
Botvinick, David Glass, and especially to Burton<br />
and Michele Horwitz.<br />

This year’s Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur prayer services were among the most<br />
unpredictable to date. While many of you participated online, others were able to join us in<br />
person. We appreciated how you all showed up, no matter which portal you entered!<br />
For those who chanted Torah or Haftarah, had an aliyah to the Torah, lifted and dressed the<br />
Torah, held and carried the Torah, opened/closed the Holy Ark, held the Torah “Chuppah” at<br />
the Family Services, and who participated with your bodies and voices in the<br />
sanctuary/outdoor tent, todah rabbah— your presence was deeply felt and appreciated. Your<br />
engagement with our sacred rituals and prayer services, in spirit and body, made this years’s<br />
holidays even sweeter than last year’s.<br />
No matter how you showed up, thank you! Next year, with everyone in the sanctuary!<br />

The Mitzvah of Warm-up America Continues<br />
this Fall<br />
Let’s keep this mitzvah<br />
going! Colder weather<br />
will soon be here. We<br />
need people to crochet or<br />
knit rectangles (7 inch by<br />
9 inch) in medium weight,<br />
acrylic yarn of any color.<br />
We also need people to<br />
sew rectangles together<br />
by hand into blankets of<br />
various sizes. Please<br />
come by on a second<br />
Tuesday of the month<br />
and we will show you how. It’s easy and fun! We will be<br />
meeting outside in the synagogue courtyard on the second<br />
Tuesday morning of the month. Fall meeting dates are: <strong>October</strong><br />
12, November 9, and December 14 at 10:30 a.m.<br />
Holiday Care Packages to College Students<br />
Sisterhood was excited to send Holiday care packages to 31<br />
Beth Meyer college students last week to remind them of their<br />
ties to our community and to wish them a very happy and<br />
successful school year. Sisterhood sent out 31 snack boxes to<br />
college students this September with the Hanukkah boxes<br />
scheduled to go out in November.<br />
Date: Saturday, November 6<br />
RSVP Date: Friday, <strong>October</strong> 29, at<br />
signupgenius.com/go/10c0444aaa82ca3fb6-jukebox<br />
Time: 7:30-9 p.m.<br />
Location: Zoom<br />
Who: Open to all Sisterhood and community members, as<br />
well as family and friends from near and far!<br />
Prizes: $5 Amazon gift cards will be sent to the winners via<br />
email after the event.<br />
Once again, COVID has upended our hopes for in person<br />
Sisterhood Trivia Night. Instead, we are pleased to offer a<br />
repeat of the highly successful Zoom Jukebox Bingo by<br />
Keith Alan Productions.<br />
Join us and sing along with the music. Gone are the boring<br />
“B-6” and “O-64” bingo numbers. Our host will play songs<br />
from the last few decades. As you start to sing along, find<br />
the song title on your bingo card and mark it off. When you<br />
match five songs titles in a row, yell “Bingo!” to claim your<br />
prize! A total of four games will be played. Game rules will<br />
be provided when Jukebox bingo cards are emailed.<br />
Minimum Cost: $20 (includes two cards per game/eight<br />
cards total).<br />
Additional Costs: If you wish to play more than the two<br />
cards included in the initial cost for more chances to win or<br />
have additional people at home who would like to play,<br />
please feel free to purchase additional cards for each round<br />
at $5 for two cards. Please specify for which round you<br />
would like your additional cards when paying.<br />
Payments must be received by <strong>October</strong> 29 and can be paid<br />
either by check made out to Beth Meyer Sisterhood, 504<br />
Newton Rd., Raleigh, NC 27615, or PayPal via<br />
paypal.me/BMSisterhood.<br />
