Help Send Kids to Jewish Camps

The Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ’s Tour de Summer Camps NJ is a
community fundraising event 

with four amazing routes for cyclists of all skill levels. Plus – Family Fun
Day Activities!

Proceeds make it possible for more children across Greater MetroWest NJ to
have the life-changing experience of attending Jewish summer camp.  Studies
show that summers spent at Jewish camp empower Jewish young people to become
spirited and engaged Jewish adults, thereby laying the groundwork for
strong, vibrant Jewish communities for future generations.

Event.

Yasher Koach to CBI congregants leading and participating in this effort,
including Susan Ratner (Event Co-Chair) and Brett Cohen, 

Ariel Dybner, David Ehrlich (Event Committee Members).

Senior Engagement and Planning Director.

On behalf of the entire kehillah, or holy community, we welcome Rabbi
Resnick with the traditional Jewish greeting 
  “Baruch ha-Ba!” (Blessed is
Your Arrival!).

Welcome!
