Shoshana S. Cardin featured speaker for Opening Meeting and Luncheon

Join us for a very exciting program at our Opening Meeting on Wednesday, September 29, at the Suburban Club, starting at 11 am,.  A delicious lunch is included.

A tireless worker for human rights, women’s rights, education, Jewish spirituality and culture, and the state of Israel, Shoshana was active in the Women’s Movement and in building and supporting Jewish educational institutions.  As a dauntless fighter for the humanitarian causes she holds so dear, Shoshana Shoubin Cardin is one of the most influential Jewish leaders of our time.

The cost is $36 per person before September 22, and $40 per person thereafter. Registration deadline is September 25.

Book Fund

Toby wanted members to know that Steve Luxenbergs's book, Annies Ghosts is now in  paperback.  But Yogi spotted the hardcover on Amazon.com for $10.00 link provided for your clicking enjoyment).  Now on sale at even a slightly lower price than the paperback. Consider That! 
Woodholme Country Club --
Wednesday, May 5th at 11 am

Annie's Ghosts'
author Steve Luxenberg writes: "Part memoir, part detective story, part history, Annies Ghosts revolves around three main characters (my mom, her sister, and me as narrator/detective/son).

As Program Chairwoman, Toby Felcher speculated, Steve Luxenberg was terrific.  Not only was he very personable and a good speaker, he brought up vital issues of privacy and the many ways they can impact our lives.

New officers and board members were installed, new members were welcomed and life members were honored.  Greetings from President Anita Potemken were read by past president Gail Gelber.

The food and service at Woodholme were excellent, and our thanks go out to the members who planned this affair.
