Last summer many CBI members relaxed and were entertained as together they enjoyed some of our local theater.  Let's do it again!  We have reserved tickets (at discounted rates) for "Hooray for Hollywood: A Tribute to Movie Musicals" on Saturday, Aug 5th at 7:30 PM at the Golden Bough.  On Sunday, August 20, we will gather at 3:00 PM for an afternoon performance of "Peter Pan" at the Forest Theater.  For seating pricing and reservations, contact the office by July 28th .  Please do not wait until the last moment as the theaters require us to make our reservations in advance.

We need YOU! - Oneg Hosts 

Oneg receptions have become an integral part of how we build our CBI sense of community and by volunteering to host; you are helping us do this. However, we are in need of hosts for the coming weeks ahead in July and August. To participate is easy and only requires you to volunteer by letting us know.

Help keep this wonderful tradition alive by hosting an Oneg in memory of a loved one, in honor of a special person or life-cycle event.  Contact the CBI office today to schedule this simple yet meaningful mitzvah.
 
We are grateful to our members during the past fiscal year, who have made our Friday night Oneg's a beautiful experience.  Thank you for making the close of our Erev Shabbat Services extra special.
