| Temple Beth Torah's Youth Group |
| |
In today's overbearing and superficial society, the youth of America
and particularly of the North Shore of Long Island are overwhelmed with
activities, ranging from sports to tutoring to schoolwork. Our youth group
would provide a reprieve from this overbearing society, as well as involve
the younger members of our temple, particularly 5th and 6th graders, in the
temple community and temple activities.
This TBT Youth Group plans to sponsor activities for the young people of the
temple to keep them involved in the temple community in a fun environment amongst
other members of the synagogue. The leaders of this group, plan to sponsor
various events such as a bowling night, a movie night,
or an ice-skating night to reveal to the younger members of our congregation a bond
that they can form with each other for a lifetime. We wish to keep the youth of the
temple involved so that they come back to the temple after their Hebrew school
education is complete.
Furthermore, this youth group aims to keep the 5th and 6th graders involved in the
temple, not only as attendants at regular services, but continuing their Jewish
education with Rabbi Katz in his weekly post bar mitzvah classes. Not only do we
look to form a safe and fun environment for these kids, but we want to form a youth
group that will continue to operate even after these young people have graduated from
high school.
A note to parents: The success of any youth program is dependent on parental encouragement,
support and sometimes participation. Parents may be asked to chaperone, provide food and
help with transportation.
