Shabbat shalom! Some interesting things coming up this weekend: Congregation Har HaShem is holding a “No-Shush” service open to the community and targeted towards community members with with special needs and their families. On Sunday, Boulder Jewish Family Service is holding their first fundraising event, “Reel Hope Boulder” featuring “Argo” producer David Klawans.
In an interesting development that we hope will get fuller treatment later here in the BJN, a small committee has been working on expanding Boulder Jewish burial options by working with Haver and Green Mountain Cemetery to add another 50 Jewish burial plots in a new Jewish section. For more information, contact Rachel Amaru or Jack Zabel.
And don’t forget, Hanukkah is coming sooner than you think, so be sure visit the Hanukkah Bazaar at Har HaShem.
