Dancing with the...(10/9)
Well, now we give you... (wait for it)... (almost here)...
"Dancing With the Jews"
Led by Rabbi Darnov, please join us at the Reform Temple of Putnam Valley this Friday, October 9th, for Simchat Torah.
You’ve heard him sing, you’ve seen him play guitar, you’ve survived his jokes and now witness the event of the year: the Dancing Rabbi!
Simchat Torah means "Rejoicing in the Torah." This holiday marks the completion of the annual cycle of weekly Torah readings. Simchat Torah is the time that we finish reading the Torah and then proceed immediately to the first chapter of Genesis, reminding us that the Torah is a circle, and never ends. This completion of the readings is a time of great celebration.
Join us on Friday evening, October 9th, for this wonderful evening with family, friends and fellow congregants as we celebrate the holiday of Simchat Torah with laughter, with song, with dance and with much joy.
(And unlike Dancing With the Stars, we don’t judge anyone, so feel free to let it all hang out.)
Cash for Gold Event (10/11)
Turn Your Jewelry Into Cash!
Yes, Cash!
Sunday October 11, 11:00AM to 6:00PM

Bring any of these items to the Temple on Sunday, October 11 between 11:00 AM and 6:00 PM. Don’t miss this opportunity to get CASH for items that have just been taking up space in your house!

Top Dollar will be paid! Your unwanted jewelry will be weighed and an offer made to you. Don’t think you have anything to sell? How about a class ring, silver coins or an heirloom piece that doesn’t fit your style anymore? The RTPV will benefit from every transaction. Please help support this event! No RSVPs are necessary but if you want to schedule your appraisal or make arrangements to drop off your jewelry at another date & time, please contact Lisa Keogh at 845-284-2842 or averygoodcause@optonline.net.
