The Kosher Cop? He's coming to Boulder to help Chabad celebrate the dedication of a new Torah.

Torah Dedication and The Kosher Cop

Chany Scheiner January 10, 2010 Jewish Life Comments Off on Torah Dedication and The Kosher Cop

Have you ever been at a Torah dedication and Hakafot? Please join us for a Special Torah Dedication and Hakafot (Dancing with the Torah) at Lubavitch of Boulder County, 4900 Sioux Drive, Boulder, CO 80303, next Sunday, January 17 at 2 pm. Feel free to bring your family for a great program. The Torah dedication and Hakafot will be from 2-3:15.

This will be followed by a talk by Detective Steve Riback of Las Vegas, who will be speaking on “The Kosher Cop: Torah Life on the Beat.”

Steve Riback’s lecture ‘Kosher Cop’ was an informative, inspiring talk coupled with humor and wittiness. The audience came away with a clear perspective on the priority of this Jewish cop when sticking to Torah standards that conflict with police policy.” -Rabbi Shea Harlig

Hoping that you will join us. Please RSVP if you plan to attend, to lubavbldr@cs.com or 303 494 1638.
