Volunteers Needed: 5th Annual Esther Cohen Mah Jongg Tournament
When: November 11 and 12
Sisterhood is requesting volunteers to set up the night before, help the day-of, and clean-up. No mah jongg knowledge is needed for these volunteer roles. Also, if you have a mah jongg set we can borrow, please note that in the form. Any help is greatly appreciated!
We would love to have the gift shop open every Sunday. In order to make that happen, we need volunteers to help run it. Arlene will be doing training on the square system on
November 5th from 10 am - 12 noon
It is a simple process, but training is required. Once you are trained, we hope you'll sign up for at least a once-a-month shift. It is a fun way to meet congregants and schmooze.
Contact: Arlene Berlin at ldorvador@contregationbethtorah.org if you are able to come to the training. If you are not able to come at that time but would like to be trained, please let us know and Arlene will reach out to you to find a time that works for you.
