About fifty alumni came to
this year's NYC summer alumni reunion. It was held at the new Chabad Loft at
144 5th Ave, which is a more intimate and warmer setting than the bright,
airy old Chabad Loft at 182 5th Ave. There's an entire wall of exposed
brick, a split-level library, kitchen-nook area...
We played a powerpoint game called "Triggers!" Mendel put together a slideshow of random Shabbos House photos over the years, and we went around the room with each person sharing what that specific photo shown during their turn brings to mind. Each alumni got a CD (with Chani's Bat-Mitzvah presentation, select Torah-Tuesday PDFs of this past year, and photos from the new Shabbos House Opening Day celebration last year), an invite to Mendel's Monday in Manhattan - first of several annual study sessions to be held at Galil's middle-eastern restaurant (back room, free hors d'oeuvres) Lexington and 85th on Monday August 30th in conjunction with Chabad of the Upper East Side Young Professionals, and a few other items. Some folks at the reunion we have seen recently at Simchas or other occasions, and others we haven't seen in years. $20pp covers costs, $50 sponsor. Salads, Desserts and other stuff. Not everyone can make every year, which is why we try to keep this an annual event. Some people can make some years, others come other years. |
