the home of Carol Higgins, Lunenburg | Yom Kippur Adult/Teen Break-Fast
The event is open only to
members of KB. Due to the limited parking space, it is recommended that
car pools be utilized as much as possible. We look forward to seeing
adults and your teenage children. A pot-luck dinner will
follow the service. Please RSVP to Linda
Brion-Meisels (or sign up at KB), and indicate how many are
coming
and what food you are bringing.

pm | At
the home of Ellen Richstone in Weston | Yom Kippur Family Break-Fast
There
will be a short family service followed by a pot-luck dinner.
All are invited, including non-members. This
is a great way for guests of all ages to meet other KB members in an
informal setting. It is especially nice for families with children too
young to sit through a more structured service. Please RSVP to Ellen Richstone
(or sign up at KB), and indicate how many people are attending and what
food you are bringing.

or directions] | Bar/Bat Mitzvah Class
This class is loosely designed for parents and kids in 4-6 grade, but is open
to anyone, regardless of ages or grades. Even if you attended the
class last year, you are more than welcome to attend again.
This is an interactive class; part of the time parents and kids
will be together and part of the time they will be split into their own
groupings. Parents are welcome to attend with or without their
children. The purpose of the class is to learn more about a bar-bat
mitzvah process in general, and to learn more about a KB-style bar-bat
mitzvah in particular. We will look at ways of making a bar-bat
mitzvah personal and relevant to the child and the family, and of
making it something that is manageable/not too overwhelming. In
addition to looking at the beginning stages of bar-bat mitzvah
planning, this class will help families decide if they feel that a
bar-bat mitzvah is something they feel is right for them.
There is no charge for the class, but pre-registration is
required; email Renee Lubowich. Lunch will be provided. We will arrange childcare for
younger children upon request.
