Graduating From School? We'd Like To Know!As we do every year, we're working on putting together a special feature in The Window featuring Temple members and their children who are graduating from school this year. We can't do this, however, without your help! If you or anyone you know is graduating from school this summer - high school, college, graduate school, Ph.D., et cetera - please let us know! You can call the Temple office (855-4882), or email windoweditor@tbsohio.org with the information. We're looking for the graduate's name, what school they're graduating from, and what school (if any) they'll be going to next. Thanks for your help!
Extended Mitkadem StaffingStarting in April, Temple Beth Shalom will be extending
staffing for the Mitkadem Program on Wednesdays from 3:30 to 7:00 pm
with additional staff personnel. It is a busy time of year for all of
our students and families and we want the students to have ample time
and staffing to make up work in our Hebrew program. If you have missed
some Sundays, would like to get ahead in your Ramah level or need some
extra help, please join us on Wednesdays for the remainder of the year.
The following dates are available for students to attend: 5/7,
5/14. Call or email Lynn Tallan with any questions (614
855-4882, ltallan@tbsohio.org). Temple Beth Shalom Scrip ProgramScrip is a term that means "substitute money". When you
purchase scrip, you're purchasing negotiable gift certificates and
prepaid cards that are used just like cash. You can use scrip to
purchase everyday expenses like food, clothing, and other
essentials—and with every purchase, you earn revenue for the Temple.
Purchasing scrip is an easy fundraiser in which to participate. You
contribute to the Temple by making regular household purchases you
would make anyway. Groceries, clothing, toys, gifts, even gasoline can
be purchased with scrip. Check with TBS Scrip Coordinator David
Neubauer (253-7654) for the latest participating retailer list, or
visit www.glscrip.com. Then
put your shopping dollars to work for the Temple! Friendly Faces Wanted!
