FOTT Movie Night

For our first Movie Night of the year, FOTT gathered to watch the animated adventure comedy movie “Super Mario Bros.” The Host Committee did an amazing job picking a movie that everyone loved. Members especially enjoyed the Mushroom Kingdom training scene where Mario takes a few hits and keeps on training to save the world! The popcorn and soft pretzel combo was a crowd favorite, especially the brown sugar honey flavor! We’re already looking forward to more awesome movie nights with our friends. Don’t forget to support The Friendship Circle for Giving Tuesday! You can donate by visiting this link on December 3rd.

Shout out to our members who took it one level higher and tried out a taller wall – you rock! We are so excited to climb again at our last session of Rock Climbing Club in December!

How it Started Vs. How it’s Going

TwitterFacebookLinkedinPrintemailA WEEKLY TORAH THOUGHT FROM RABBI MORDY This week’s Parsha (Vayakhel) tells of the artisans, the expert craftsmen who produced the Mishkan, the Tabernacle where the Jewish people served G-d in the desert. What is most interesting to note is how little this differs from the previous portions where G-d commands it to Moses and Moses conveys to the Jewish… Read More
