Along with reduced operating hours, the upcoming Shavuot and Memorial Day holidays will treat Levite JCC members to a few social events.
First up is Shavuot | Festival of Weeks. This Jewish holiday combines two major observances: celebrating the early summer wheat harvest and the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai. Shavuot is also the only Jewish holiday that encourages the consumption of dairy products. Accordingly, we will host an ice cream social on Wed., May 20, 4-6 p.m.
In addition, the facility will close at 6 p.m. on Thurs., May 21, and all day on Fri., May 22.
In part to celebrate the opening of the outdoor pool on May 19 — and to take advantage of the extended Memorial Day weekend — we will host a pool party for members on Sun., May 24, 11 a.m.-2 p.m. We’re calling it “Sundaes on Sunday,” so that should give you some idea of what to expect… along with snacks and some swag.
The facility will close at 6 p.m. in observance of Memorial Day on Mon., May 25.
