Chanukah Party

Our annual Chanukah Party was a huge success on Monday night at Schenley Ice Rink! Members had a blast making Chanukah cards, crafting edible dreidels, meeting Elsa and Anna from Frozen, and of course, ice skating!

So I’m going to share a brief thought on Sukkot in that spirit. Sukkot is seriously… Read More
