Jewish Federation of Greater Dayton

Our 2018 Annual Meeting took place last night. It was a wonderful evening.

I’ve read many articles throughout the years about what activities have the biggest impact on one’s Jewish identity. Not surprisingly, summer camp is toward the top of the list.

When I moved to Dayton almost 6 years ago, I was amazed at all of the wonderful things our city has to offer. Admittedly one of the things that surprised me most was our baseball team.

Having grown up in a household where Federation was an integral part of my life, it seemed only natural that as an adult, I myself would become immersed in Jewish communal work.

I can’t think of any book in my young adulthood that had more impact on my life than The Jewish Catalog.

I’ve always felt a deep connection to the Jewish community.

The WHIM is taking a vacation this week.

I traveled to Columbus yesterday for the Ohio Jewish Communities’ Annual Meeting.

This is one of my favorite times of year. Not for the weather…I’ve always despised the heat
