Eric Golberg As we enter December and January we often begin to have conversations with one another about what our “New Year's resolution” is going to be. Are we going to workout more, read more, spend more time with others? This time of year provides us an opportunity to reassess and reflect on ourselves. Much like our New Year's resolutions, our USY Board and programming has gone through a similar process of reimagining Youth programming this year. With the challenges of online and in-person programs, our leaders have created thoughtful and exciting new programs each week. With the new calendar year, our Board plans to continue to strive to provide dynamic programming and welcome our new 8th grade USY’ers to join our Lounge Nights on Thursday Night from 7-9pm in the Gloss Youth Lounge.

Below are the following dates for USY Lounge Nights and other Youth events. Make sure to check out our Youth page on the Beth Shalom website for up to date information on programs and other events!
