Bet Torah Teen Talk: Kadima Edition
Keeping you in the know about our exciting middle school programs!
|
|
Sixth graders can join Kadima for this year AND NEXT YEAR
for just $100 if they send in dues by November 10!
We are excited to invite current Bet Torah 6th graders to join Kadima for 6th and 7th grade, this year and next year, for the low price of $100. To get the discount, you must
register and send in dues before Thursday, November 10! (
If you've already paid the usual $75 for sixth grade Kadima dues, the offer is still good! Just send us another $25 before November 10). Kadima dues will return to $75 a year for Bet Torah congregants on November 11.
If you're not Bet Torah congregants, the offer is for $150 for two years. Starting November 11 they will return to the usual $100 per year.
Remember that the Fruithandler Fund generously gives a year of free Kadima as a B'nei Mitzvah gift to members of the Bet Torah family that applies to 8th grade.
We are committed to the ideal that no teen be excluded from our Youth Program for financial reasons. Please email Youth Chairs Karen Allison and Jill Heller about scholarship. All inquiries will be treated with the utmost discretion.
