Your Sisterhood at Work
It was a beautiful Sunday Morning as we (your 2008-2010 board) gathered at our Presidents house for a retreat to start off the next term.
We started with a delicious brunch but shortly after that we got down to business. First we did a little bit of self introduction by playing 2 truths and a lie....
so here is a little of the game for you to figure out:
who in our group if any...
Dated Jerry Mathers (Beaver Cleaver)
Is fluent in Maderin Chinese
Is there an Opera Singer, Librarian or an Olympic Swimmer in our group?
oh yes and how many nurses are there on the board?
After some very surprised ...Did you really?!? we got down to business
First we had to define who we are or maybe who we are not? so everyone answered these three little questions?
Who is sisterhood? ~ What is sisterhood? ~ Why does sisterhood exist?
The first thing we figured out is that we are not our mothers Sisterhood...
Yes, we are in the kitchen, but we are also on the Bihma
Yes, we talk about how to celebrate a holiday but we talk about how to celebrate it in the home in the synagogue and in the community.
Yes, we worry about Israel but we also do things to help the situation on a personal level and on an organizational level.
our mothers sisterhood gave us a great foundation and we are taking it to the next level and are looking forward to see where our daughters take their sisterhood when it's their turn to take the reigns.
The day ended with a little bonding building project:
we had paper, tape and straws and each teams goal was to see which group could work together to build the tallest free standing tower

A Season for Change
In anticipation of Fridays installation we (the new board and the old board) had a transition meeting were the Current Board Member handed over their materials, explained what they are working on and any suggestions regarding how to get the job done.
Normally communications comes at the end of the meeting but since we are responsible for the blog I will talk about us first. Betsy Rosner is our V.P. Gert Klorman and Dorothy Rish are Sunshine and Phone Tree, Lynn Freeman is publicity and I am historian (what more could I ask for taking pictures and doing the blog).
The Queens of the Sisterhood Kitchen
Parvin Delshad is V.P. and Georgina Einsiedler. I know for a fact that with these ladies in charge our Oneg's will be wonderful.
We all send them from time to time and it's so easy just a phone call or a e-mail and it will still be easy but now it will be Sharlene Blau
Miriam Carroll enjoyed her role as Jewish Family Life Chair, but is ready to turn it over to Rabbi Diane Cohen's capable hands.
Torah Fund... I know that I always ask what is "Torah Fund" and after I am told it is a good thing they go on to explain that this is a major fund raising goal of sisterhood and the funds raised are used for Rabbinical and Cantorial scholarships JoAnn Leeds and Linda Pearl will make sure our Torah Fund contribution is good.
And while we are talking about money.... there are those who get keep track of it ... it use to be Esther Feingold and now it will be Janis Shein.
and we couldn't do it with out our Membership Committee
of Maeva Carter and Joanne Block and Joyce Sacharatoff is our Parliamentarian.
