Circle of Friends evokes the spirit of Tom Sawyer!  Rhoda Rosen and Barbara Schwartz are having such a great time sorting through boxes of Beth Israel photographs, that they want others to have as much fun as they are having.  Wednesday, October 6, 2010 from 7Pm to 9Pm at Beth Israel the West Temple is our first meeting of the new year.  After a short service to welcome Cheshvan led by Enid, we will have a great time looking at old photographs, identifying the who, what, and when in them.  This is an essential step in sorting and preparing the photos to add to the Beth Israel archives at the Jewish Archives of the Western Reserve Historical Society.

We think this will all go better with whatever snacks you would like to bring and share.  We’ll provide coffee, tea, etc..  Please feel free to bring, spouses, friends, or anyone who has had anything to do with the Temple, Sunday School, Tot Shabbat, Galas, etc., etc..  You’ll love looking at the pictures, and we need all the help we can get!

If you need a ride, have any questions, or to R.S.V.P., please call Barbara Schwartz or Susan Wagner
