Simchas Torah at Aish Hatorah!
Dear Community,
THERE IS ONLY ONE SIMCHAS TORAH AND THERE IS ONLY ONE AISH HATORAH… THIS YEAR EXPERIENCE BOTH TOGETHER!
We have a fun-packed schedule this year with things for everyone! Fun for the children (lots of candy!), fun for the women (Naomi Levin will teach a class on “Dancing with G-d” in the Aish seminar room at 12:00 pm and Aviva Miriam Notowitz will lead dancing during Hakafos!), and fun for the men (singing dancing and just a wee drop o' the hard stuff with our very own Irish Rabbi!)
Don't forget about our free barbeque lunch for paying members and their families
(Non members who would like to join MUST reserve in advance. $36 per adult and $18 per child)
The fun begins at 9:45 am on Simchas Torah morning, with our Kiddush, grand auction, and Hakafos.
Hope to see you there!
Chag Sameach,
Menucha Cohen

Parking at Chase bank
Dear community,
We received the following email today from Chase bank. Please note that the bank does us a tremendous favor by allowing us to use their parking lot during the early mornings and evenings. We should certainly do our part and honor their few, but important, requests.
Moed Tov Umevorach. Per our conversation before the holiday please inform the congregants of Aish that our parking lot is available for use before and after bank hours. However, there are two spots reserved for ATM users that need to remain available for customers even after the branch closes. Those two spots are in the South West corner of the lot and have signage indicating they are specifically designated for ATM customers.
Additionally, I know this only occurs twice a year on Pesach and Succoth, but it must be addressed. The parking lot needs to be available to Chase customers by 8:30 am. This morning the lot was still occupied as of 8:55. We know that tefilot can run late due to the Chag nonetheless we need the lot to be available at 8:30 mainly for customers and staff parking. Please keep this in mind for Mondays and Thursdays.
As always the co operation of Aish and its congregation is greatly appreciated and we are happy to try and accommodate the community whenever possible.
Thank you!
