[Jewish] Fwd: Re: Simchat torah hakafot

[amd00 at hampshire.edu]

Hi Everyone,

(1) For those of you who are leading part of or planning on attending the 
Simchat Torah service on Saturday 8pm at UMASS Hillel House you might find the 
following E-mail and attachment helpful. 

(2) Feel free to continue using the Sukkah throughout the holiday. It is there 
for you.

(3) Now that the holidays are behind us, we will probably be having another 
meeting next week, be on the look out for information on the date, time, and 
place and start thinking about things you would like to see JSU do this 
semester.

(4) Like usual, we will be having Shabbat dinner in the kosher mod (mod 91) 
Friday night. Candle lighting this week is at 6:27pm. If you want to help cook 
get in touch with Jesse x5190. If you are like me and don't have time and you 
are a hazzard in the kitchen try to be there by 6:15ish so we can light candles 
on time.  

(5) Tonight, 9pm library lawn, is the solidarity vigil and speak-out against 
racism, homophobia, and anti-Semitism on this campus. Come out and show your 
support. (Thank you to those who put this togeather!)

(6) This is the last thing.. I promise.. There was an E-mail sent out to the 
list about a workshop/discussion on what it means to be a Jewish teenager. You 
should have already received an E-mail with more details. If you haven't let me 
know and I will be happy to forward it to you. That is happening this Wed. in 
the Women's Center (in Enfield) from 7-9pm.
  
As always any questions can be directed to me by replying to this E-mail. Have 
a great Hol Hamoed, and thank you for your time.

- Alizah

Attached is an explanation/transliteration of how to do the poem that
introduces each hakafa for simchat torah.  People may use this to help
explain it to the student's leading.
