For some strange reason,
many of you got the May/June issue pretty late as the post office resumed it all a week
later to inform that it was a non-standard size so we had to fold it into halves. It
finally went out that same afternoon. Despite this inconvenience, we had a nice turnout
for the Kosher Mexican Night, there were twelve of us. Welcome four new teens, Jodi (Tall)
Dagan, Rebecca Schoor, Jacky Szpiro, and Jake Weiss. The menu was delicious: Beef
taquitos, chicken enchiladas, vegetarian burritos, chicken tacos, rice, beans, Mexican
flan and mocha ice cream! It was really nice. Thanks to Del Corazon, David Eskenazi. We
earned S36.00 from this fundraiser.
