Temple Shaaray Tefila Travels to Breezy Point

 ,   Add to calendar
 Bedford-Katonah  See map

On two recent Sundays, almost 100 Temple Shaaray Tefila members of all ages met at 7 am to board a bus which would take them to Breezy Point, Queens, to offer support and helping hands to families that were devastated by Hurricane Sandy. Upon arrival they were met by a group of workers from IsraAid, an Israeli organization whose members travel around the world to offer assistance after catastrophic occurrences. 


Come hear about this amazing story directly from the IsraAid representatives on Friday, December 21 at 7:30 pm at Temple Shaaray Tefila. Temple Shaaray Tefila congregant Vivian Cohn, upon her return to Westchester remarked “This group of Israelis has been here for a month, working every day for complete strangers. They are enthusiastic, friendly, hard-working and personable. I felt that I could have invited each and every one home with me and they would have felt like part of the family. What incredible ambassadors for Israel and for all Jews!” 


All are welcome to this program.  There is no admission charge.

This is a terrific addition to town! I know I struggle with mounting piles of things to donate andRead More finding places to give to. With the Community Center and now Goodwill, great to find a second home for goods.

Okay but let's focus on the charter of the BOE. The Board of Education believes its primaryRead More responsibility should focus on creating an educational environment that will help our students become knowledgeable individuals, problem-solvers, quality producers, effective communicators, wholesome individuals, collaborative workers, ethical individuals, life-long learners, and responsible, accepting and involved citizens. We remain committed to providing a high quality, well-balanced educational program that supports our faculty and staff and helps our students meet and exceed State standards as well as high district goals. It says nothing about protecting the investments of taxpayers by voting "no" on every expenditure. We need forward thinking, broad minded individuals to help guide educational direction of our schools. Keeping expenses reasonable and and in check should be a consideration by the educational focus should be primary. Although novices, Trustees Tobin and Schiff have helped true the course of the board back to the direction of education. Mr Stone who himself admitted he had never even been to a BOE meeting before deciding to run offers no sense of motivation other than Dr Treyz and his friends think he'll help shift the direction back toward finance. Mr Holbrook is no different a candidate than Mr Lipton himself was 6 years ago.
