Organizational Meeting for TBS Klezmer Youth Band
Note new date! -> 7PM, Sunday, Feb 12, 2012 <- Note new date!
Calling all young musicians! Kids in grades 7-12 are invited to join our new youth klezmer band.
Participants must be able to read music and have three or more years' experience playing their instrument.
Please bring your instrument to audition for our band director, Steven Greenman.
At the meeting we will compare schedules and choose dates/times for future rehearsals.
Please RSVP by email or phone to David Selinger (deselinger@gmail.com , 330-861-9120 cell, 330-653-8223 home) and/or Robin Selinger (robinselinger@gmail.com , 330-319-4026 cell, 330-653-8223 home).
We still need donations to support the band. We've applied to the Jewish Education Center of Cleveland for a grant, but if approved it would only cover about half of the cost, so we're counting on the congregation to help me make this dream a reality. If you can help, please send a check to Temple Beth Shalom, 50 Division Street, Hudson, OH 44236, and note that it's for the Music Fund.
Special Service for our Friends and Neighbors
Dear TBS Congregants,
On Friday, February 10, at 7:45 pm, we open our doors to welcome our non-Jewish friends and neighbors to enjoy a Shabbat service and learn about our faith and traditions.
Throughout this worship service, Rabbi Ezring and Robin Selinger will explain Jewish worship and theology, and our adult B’nai Mitzvah Class will participate in leading the service. Last year, this service drew almost 200 guests from St. Mary’s and other local churches, and we expect an even larger turnout this year.
We need your help.
#1. Please attend this service.
It is most important that our congregation is well represented to both participate in the service and to make our guests feel welcome.
#2. Bring a special treat for the oneg.
We have planned a special oneg after the service which will carry through the theme of our worship service. We plan to offer the foods and desserts associated with each of the major Jewish holidays along with the symbols that represent them. Since we have some of the best cooks and bakers and shoppers around, please go to the website http://piratepad.net/tbshudson and sign up to bring one or more of the items listed.
Thanks in advance for your participation in this wonderful evening.

Conversational Hebrew Class 
Beth Madis is organizing an adult conversational Hebrew class at TBS. The class will be open to anyone wanting to learn modern Hebrew and converse with confidence while visitng Israel or anyone who's "aged out" of Hebrew School and wants to keep on learning. The plan is to have 12 weekly sessions on Monday evenings (please note that this is different from the previous Megillah post stating Wednedsays because Wednesdays are full at TBS!) beginning at 6:00, from March 5 to May 21, 2012. The class will be open to the 1st 10-12 participants, and the teacher will be Oudi Singer. If you don't know Oudi, he happens to be a fluent Hebrew speaker speaker (he's from Israel) and he was a Sunday School teacher at TBS fro 2002-2008, and he served as our youth director from 2004-2007. He also has taught at Akiva & Agnon Schools, as well as Temple Beth El in Akron. The cost will be $60 per person (which works out to $5 per class). If you might be interested in participating, or if you would like further information, please contact Beth Madis at madisb@gmail.com or 330-606-4424. Thanks!
