Shabbat shalom and happy Chanukah! Thursday night, Boulder County Center for Judaism hosted a virtual community wide Chanukah party and menorah lighting that attracted roughly 300 family members. Be sure to check out all our holiday coverage on our Chanukah page.
You can re-live the party right here with this YouTube video:
Boulder County (along with all Metro Denver counties) moved to Level Red on Friday November 20th; this is the most restrictive level before we get to a full blown Stay at Home order. Please be sure to follow all the recommendations/ requirements of Boulder County Public Health to combat COVID-19, including wearing masks in public and avoiding gatherings outside your family group.
