CBS-CS High Holiday youth activities This year, Congregation Beth Sholom-Chevra Shas will offer family-centered activities during the High Holidays for families with children in pre-kindergarten-fourth grade. Together, families will participate in interactive activities and a discussion exploring the meaning of the High Holidays. Teenagers in grades eight-12 will stay with Sara Goldfarb, the new CBS-CS United Synagogue Youth/ Kadima advisor, and be able to participate in activities and discussions exploring the themes of the holidays as they relate to the teenagers’ lives. CBS-CS member Arel Moodie, a nationally recognized motivational speaker, will facilitate the activities for children in grades five-seven. The experience for pre-teens is intended to be the first of many events of the Kadima members. Families, pre-teens and teenagers will spend part of the morning during the High Holidays
in the main sanctuary participating in the shofar service and the procession to return the Torah to the ark with the rest of the CBS-CS community. Organizers hope the programs will meet the needs of families, children, parents and teenagers. The High Holiday youth and family activities will be held from 10 am-1 pm, during Rosh Hashanah, Monday-Tuesday, September 14-15, and on Yom Kippur, Wednesday, September 23, beginning in the CBS-CS school wing. They will all be open to the community. For more information, contact Julie Tornberg, CBS-CS director of youth and education, at 701-2685 or director@ cbscs.org. Reservations have been requested so that the presenters can be adequately prepared. Reservations have also been requested for babysitting, which will be available for 3-year-olds and younger from 9 am-1 pm.
