We had an amazing 2016-2017 year, filled with fun events with old and new friends. We learned about bees and honey for Rosh Hashanah, talked about the Jewish value of kindness to animals at Sweet Briar Nature Center, celebrated Hanukkah at the Walt Whitman and Smith Haven Malls, baked hamentashen at a real bakery... And so much more!

Thank you to all of our volunteers for making this possible -- we're so excited for even more activities and events to come!
