"Fiddler on the Roof"

Shushan Shuffle 5K Family Run/Walk, Purim Spiel & Purim Carnival

Sunday, March 19

Temple Jeremiah hosted its annual Shushan Shuffle, Purim Spiel and Carnival. The day's events included:

3RD ANNUAL SHUSHAN SHUFFLE - Participants enjoyed a good workout! Proceeds benefitted SHALVA, a Jewish agency aimed at preventing domestic violence and abuse.

PURIM SPIEL- Our talented troupe of Jeremiah staff and board members presented their own rendition of the Purim story, written by one of our congregants, complete with greggers and a Megillah reading.

PURIM CARNIVAL - Congregants joined Tevye, Golde, Motel, Yente and a cast of other colorful "Fiddler on the Roof" characters for some light-hearted fun. It didn't last from sunrise to sunset, but there was plenty of time to sing Karaoke, bounce on the Moomwalk, play a variety of games, win prizes and enjoy lunch and treats.

 

Thanks to the following organizations who helped sponsor this worthwhile event:

  • Dominick's
  • Sunset Foods
  • Once Upon A Bagel
  • Rainbow Productions
  • Skarbek Chiropractic
