On Friday night, June 8th, Alumni from four Schechter schools attended the first ever Shabbat dinner for alumni of Schechter schools. The dinner was held at Talia’s Steakhouse, on the Upper West Side of Manhattan (which offers pre-paid shabbat dinners). It was a warm evening and the windows were open. Everyone had a great time and the Alumni were able to mingle before dinner. As the Shabbat blessings were recited, the mood was lively and the general atmosphere of the restaurant was festive. Arnie Zar-Kessler, Head of School at SSDS Boston, and Sharon Mintz, Director of Major Gifts and Alumni Relations at SSDS Boston were in attendance. This dinner sets the precedent for many alumni events to come!
