Greetings from NNJR President David Julis

Hopefully, in spite of the heat and humidity all of you are having an enjoyable summer and have had some time to relax and recharge your batteries.

We are looking forward to another exciting year. We have a plethora of activities planned, including another NJ Devils Jewish Heritage Night, Go-Karts, Top Golf and a BBQ-Beer Bash. These are all events which I call FUN-raisers. It’s a great way to get guys together and just have a good time and get to know each other. What could be better than that? Of course, we are doing our standard events - Yellow Candle, World Wide Wrap, Men’s Club Shabbats, etc. We have already started to plan for our signature event, the Man of the Year Celbrations, which will be held on December 8^th (North) and December, 15^th (South). All of these events, and more, are viewable on our website nnjr.org. If you want to share your club's events on the calendar, send your calendar to communicationsvp@nnjr.org and we will publish it.

We will be holding our first meeting of the new Executive Board in August. If you have any concerns, suggestions and/or ideas that you would like to have the board discuss, please feel free to contact me at president@nnjr.org.

As I've always say, we are here for you and we are all in this together. We are a brotherhood.

B’Shalom,

David

Club Communications With The Region

So, your club is having a program, and you want other clubs to know about it?

You would like some regional officers to attend your Men’s Club Shabbat?

You just want the NNJR leadership to know you’re doing something?

Here’s how you can keep the NNJR Board connected with your Men’s Club activities:

Every club should include the following email forwarding addresses in their mailing list:

president@nnjr.org – Keep the President informed about club events so they may attend if possible.

execvp@nnjr.org – Keep the Executive Vice President informed about club events so they may attend if possible.

communicationsvp@nnjr.org – Keep the Communications Vice President informed about club events so they may add it to this newsletter, etc. to keep other clubs informed.

Furthermore, each club should include the appropriate Rosh email address out of the following:

roshnorth@nnjr.org – For those clubs in the Northern District.

roshcentral@nnjr.org – For those clubs in the Central District.

roshsouth@nnjr.org – For those clubs in the Southern District.

This would be so your Rosh can be informed about club events so they may attend if possible.

Please see this chart to determine your club’s district:

The Federation of Jewish Men's Clubs involves Jewish Men in Jewish Life by strengthening it's network of Men's Clubs and Individual Members.
