Exciting news! Instead of us holding our own Women's Seder on 3/23, we have the opportunity to participate in The Women's Seder with Debbie Friedman on Tues, 3/2 at Emmanuel Synagogue in West Hartford.
From the JCC: This is going to be an AMAZING community wide women's event that the Mandell JCC is spearheading along with the Jewish Federation of Greater Hartford, the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Hartford, synagogue sisterhoods, schools and women's organizations.  We think this is going to be the hottest ticket in town and are expecting 500 women so please be sure to register soon.  You won't want to miss this meaningful and inspirational evening with 500 of your closest friends and Debbie Friedman!

The price is $36 per person.  If you are interested in being part of a group from Kol Haverim, please email Harriet Cutler at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it or call her at 659-0644 by 1/15/09!
