Kugel Baking Contest Returns!

That’s right! As part of the Jewish Food Festival, we will again hold a Kugel Baking Contest.
We have expanded the competition to include sweet kugels AND savory kugels.
But wait, there’s more! A third category will be the People’s Choice award.

So, bakers, you will have two chances to win this year, as every entry will be eligible for the People’s Choice. For a $5 donation, Festival attendees will taste each kugel and choose their favorite.

To Participate: We ask that you prepare and bake your choice of kugel in a new, disposable (13 X 9) aluminum pan. Deliver your dish by 10:45 AM on April 30th at Congregation B’Nai Jacob. Judging for the Most Savory and Sweetest Kugels will begin at 11:00. If you have any questions and to sign up in advance, please call Elaine White at 549-9606.

Yom HaShoa – Holocaust Remembrance Day
April 23, 2017, 2pm at Temple Beth El

Join us this Yom HaShoa as we meet with and listen to the recollections and stories from Holocaust survivor, Nathan Spiewak (pictured at right). Spiewak (b. 1933) survived the Holocaust as a child, being hidden in a French apartment, then sent to the Vélodrome d’hiver internment camp in Paris.

Each year this holiday reminds us of both the fragility and strength of human beings and acts as a reminder to spread kindness and love, not hatred and prejudice. Please join us for this special event. Free admission (donations accepted and appreciated).
