NEW! Upcoming Men's Club Events on Interactive Calendar

The Beth Emeth Men's Club is an organization of volunteers committed to a strong and united Conservative movement, dedicated to observing the commandments of service and study, and brought together in camaraderie and friendship.

We invite all members of Beth Emeth to take advantage of the Men's Club programs. We’re looking forward to the many activities and events for which the Men ’s Club is famous: assisting the Ritual Committee with High Holy Day ushering (jointly with Sisterhood) and Sukkot camping trip; Men's Club Shabbat service; Bingo Nights; the Super Bowl party; and, of course, the Purim Carnival. We’re hoping to have more frequent breakfast meetings where we can shmooze, munch, and hear an interesting speaker or two, as well as a few off-site events. 

The Men's Club also sponsors the Yom HaShoah Yahrzeit Candle program each year, sending a candle to each Beth Emeth household. On Monday, April 20, 2009, Erev Yom HaShoah, we lit our Yellow Candles and reciting the linked meditation. If you would like, please make a contribution now to the CBE Men’s Club Yom HaShoah Program to support this effort.  Use the online form to select a contribution amount and you will be billed on your next statement from the synagogue.

The Men's Club's newest initiative is the CBE Cycling Club, with rides most Sundays during the summer. Join us! More information is on the Cycling Club page.

All these activities are made possible by the efforts of the many Men's Club members. Please watch the weekly e-mail announcements and the bulletin distributed at Shabbat services for information on upcoming Men’s Club events. We look forward to meeting you and exploring the possibilities that your participation will bring to the organization. To join the Men's Club please use this form or contact Craig DuBois with any questions.

1/18/10 Bowling League Starts David Hillelsohn   Social & Recreational

Monday, January 18, 8:30 PM, Official Start Date of the Mid-Season Bowling League. Men’s Club is helping to form bowling teams for anyone who wishes to bowl in a winter league. Bowling will be at 9:15 PM on Monday nights at the Bowl America on Stonecroft Blvd. Teams are made up of 3 players, and we are joining the Mid-Season Trios league at the alley. The coordination meeting is set for 8:30 PM on the 18th with bowling to follow at 9:15 PM. This is a handicapped league so we’ll be setting our handicaps on the 18th (or the first time you bowl). If you have a team, wish to be added to a team, or want to be an alternate for occasional bowling, please email the Men’s Club email address at mensclub@bethemeth.org or ask any Men’s Club Board Member for details. Cost for bowling is $15/week with prize money distribution at the end of the season. Congratulations to the Holy Rollers (Brent Dann, Jamie MacDonald, and Jon Kraden) – reigning league champions.

Observance

The CBE Men's Club teams up with Religious School to present the World Wide Wrap, the International Day to celebrate the mitzvah of Tefillin. Both 6th grade classes will attend this fun, educational program when we will learn more about this mysterious custom. 6th grade parents are encouraged to attend, as are 7th graders and their parents. We will learn how to lay Tefillin, then participate in the very special USY morning minyan known as Sunday Shachareit Live. The morning concludes with a lox and bagel breakfast served by Men's Club and a discussion in which Men's Club members will share Tefillin recollections. NO COST. Please bring all sets of Tefillin you can find.
