By now most of you should be aware of this year's <strong>KOACH</strong>
Kallah, March 4-7, at the Pearlstone Conference and Retreat Center
outside of Baltimore. Our very exciting lineup focuses on Setting the
Agenda: Jews and Public Policy and features Rabbi Leonard Gordon of
the Germantown Jewish Centre in Philadelphia and co-chair of the USCJ
Committee on Public Policy and Social Action. This conference is a
great opportunity for students who would enjoy inspiring conversation,
service to the community and a breathtaking Shabbat. Information and
registration are available at <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.koach.org/">www.koach.org</a> -- and I'm also happy
to answer any questions.
<div> </div>
<div>It would be wonderful if you could personally recommend this to
your emerging leaders, to folks who are usually responsible for
creating Shabbat for others and could use some nurturing and really,
anyone who would enjoy the spirited learning environment.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Registration is $250, but we just received a grant which brings
the cost down to $150 for the first twenty students who let me know
that you sent them with this very scholarship in mind.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Know that we will send them back to you with renewed energy and
enthusiasm!</div>
