Friends,
I have not, as yet, received any response to the following message about Tu
B'shvat, the Jewish New Year of the trees. Although I am happy to put this
together, if no one is interested in helping, or at least attending, a
seder, there's no point in doing the work to put one on and I will just do
something with the religious school/Bagle bunch kids.
So, in this light, please let me know if you are interested in coming to a
Tu B'shvat seder, which will include an evening meal, on Sunday, January 27,
at 4:00 P.M. This would not be a committment, just a way of my figuring out
if this is worth doing.
Thanks,
Johanna (767-2311)
