I am excited to share with you that JDCC News is now in cyberspace!!! You can find us on the World Wide Web at:http://members.aol.com/jdccnews/ Our big thanks to Jim Cherry for making this possible! At this time, three issues (May/June, July/August, and Sept/Oct) and it is wonderful to see color photos. Go and browse through it, and give us your feedback on any ideas!

    We had a booth at Deaf Expo '96 and it was fun! JDCC's booth was decorated with Chanukah lights. Over 75 new people signed on our mailing list! JDCC donated funds to enable Deaf Expo to provide a Castle Moon Bounce for the Children's program. David Rosenbaum, Director of Marketing did a great job putting the Deaf Expo together! Bravo! Thanks to Ruth Morris, Sheila & Leslie Goodman and Eddie Friedman for volunteering their time at JDCC's booth on Sunday.

    We welcome Lore Rosenthal aboard starting with this issue. She will be write the Interpreter's column. She comes from Philadelphia, PA and is one of the rare interpeters that can 'transliterate' from Hebrew to English during services!!! Her column appears on page 11.

    We have also added a new column 'Jewish Deaf Profile'. Barry Strassler will be writing these articles. The first column appears on page 7.

    I want to thank Avremi Swerdlov of New York who helped greatly during our Yom Kippur services. He made sure our services went smoothly, and he did a great job assisting Rabbi Fred Friedman!

    Don't forget to buy the new Chanukah stamps that the United States Postal Service has released for your holiday cards! Wishing you all a very happy Chanukah!
