Week in Review: July 23rd, 2010

Shabbat Shalom! It’s hard to believe that the summer is about 2/3 over. Camps are into their second half sessions, grant information for the coming year is starting to come out, Tisha B’Av is past.

Earlier this week, the national organization American Jewish Congress laid off remaining staff, effectively closing after more than 90 years. In other news, the vote in Israel on the conversion bill appears to be delayed for several months.

On a more positive note, local teens continue to prep for the Denver JCC Maccabi Games which begin on August 1. Many Boulder-area families are involved, as athletes, host families and volunteers. Registration is needed even for attending the competitions – more info is available here.

Have a peaceful Shabbat!
