Chaverim

Chaverim is a senior friendship group of The Community Synagogue. 

Chaverim provides programming geared to exploring the world around us.  We do this through trips, book discussions, films, lectures, special events, and classes.  We have holiday celebrations, interactive classes in posture, stretching and wellness, and classes in Yoga and Yiddish.  Many other interesting programs are being planned. Bring your ideas and enthusiasm!  For more information, contact Evie Schonbrun at evieschonbrun@gmail.com.

We are in the process of framing the year's activities and welcome you to join us when we begin our year in October!

Wellness Programs

Chair Yoga

Chair Yoga is every Friday, 10:30 – 11:30 am. For one hour, focus on YOU. Forget your aches and pains and anything troubling you and allow Beth Lipset (synagogue member and certified yoga instructor) to lead you in breathing and gentle stretching. The class is continuous and you can join at any time.

 Try it for one session at no charge or sign up for a full six-session series for $60, $12 per session if paid individually,  payable to The Community Synagogue. For additional information, contact Beth Lipset. 

Ongoing Events

Yiddish Class

Do you Farshtay A Bisl Yiddish? If the answer is yes, do we have a group for you! Our group reads  Yiddish Literature which is transliterated into English. Therefore you don’t have to be able to read it in it’s original Hebraic letters.  We enjoy discovering the wisdom and creativity of famous Yiddish writers. Just to mention a few: Sholem Aleichem, I.B. Singer, S. Ash, and I.L. Perez. We meet at the Synagogue, in the Board Room, every Tuesday morning from 10:30 to 11:30 am. We have a great time reading, learning and laughing and would love for you to join us.
