Sweet Sixteen in the Vineyard

Got your attention, didn’t I? Well, get your mind out of the gutter. I’m talking about celebrating our synagogue’s sixteen birthday. Kehilat HaNahar (“the Little Shul by the River”) is our house of worship in New Hope. And we are having a grand bash at Crossing Vineyards & Winery on June 5th, from 6:30 to 9:30 pm. In addition to delicious food provided by Crossing’s in-house caterer, Grand Cru, they’ll be hot music and cool wine, of course. And the silent auction items! I know, I know. Every fundraiser has “great” silent auction items, but take a gander at these, all you foodies…
