June/July 2019
Message From Our Co-Presidents
Dear Friends,

This is our last edition of Scoop for 2018-2019. We hope you’ve enjoyed the articles and photos and the descriptions of events we held throughout the year. We could not have published Scoop without the exceptional talent and hard work of two members of our Temple staff, Rachel-Ann Levy, Director of Communications & Development and Emily Shefer, Communications and Development Coordinator.

Special thanks to our 2018-2019 Executive Committee and Board of Directors. Your dedication to the Sisterhood mission is what makes our community warm and strong.

We wish you a relaxing and fun-filled summer. We will publish our next issue in August.

Warmly,
Lisa & Leslie
