Megillah readings are always a blast at B'nai Jeshurun, especially when you have the Ghostbusters leading the service and everyone in costume ready to have fun. Thanks to our many Megillah readers and all of the volunteers who prepared lots and lots of hamantashen, worked at the Purim Carnival and delivered mishloach manot to the residents of Menorah Park and Montefiore.
