Youth GroupsB'nai Israel Federation of Temple Youth - BIFTYIntroducing…B’nai Israel’s Tween SceneJunior Youth GroupAn Invitation for ParentsNFTY - NEiTorahCollege PageB'nai Israel Federation of Temple YouthMeet our new BIFTY Advisor Some of the happiest moments of my youth were hanging out with friends from my temple youth group and spending summers at Kutz Camp, the URJ’s Camp Institute for high school students. I am especially thrilled to have the opportunity to work with some fantastic teens as BIFTY’s Advisor. For those of you who don’t know, BIFTY (B’nai Israel Temple Youth) is our congregation’s youth group for high school students. We will be announcing our calendar of programs in the next month or so and I, along with the entire BIFTY Board, would like to welcome old and new friends to join us. All programs are created by BIFTY teens, for BIFTY teens. If you (or your son or daughter) have any questions or would like more information about joining BIFTY, please don’t hesitate to contact me at jrrwallis@yahoo.com. Enjoy the rest of the summer, and I look forward to a wonderful year ahead. I am proud to introduce our 2010-2011 BIFTY Board to you: BIFTY Board 2010-2011

Junior Youth Group 5770/2009-2010We are very excited about the upcoming year for the 5th and 6th Grade Junior Youth Group. For those of you with children new to this age group, the purpose of the Junior Youth Group is to foster strong social and religious connections for the 5th and 6th graders with their peers outside of the religious school experience. A social action component is also included in each program. The programming is totally run by parent volunteers through the Junior Youth Group Committee and we would welcome your participation. We run approximately 5-6 programs during the year. In the past, we have done things like a Chanukah movie night, laser tag/bowling and a trip to an indoor water park. The Youth Group generally meets on a Saturday night for about two and a half hours. This past year, all of the programs were well attended and we hope to continue to build on the success of the past year. Please mark your calendars for our first activity which will be on December 5, from 7:00 - 9:30 and is currently in the planning stages. In order to be environmentally friendly and to keep costs down communications about the Junior Youth Group programs will be sent via email. If notification of the programs via email is not practical for you please call Lori at 374-5159 or email me at lunderberger@pullcom.com. For the welfare of everyone and to ensure a comfortable environment for all the Youth Group Committee has decided to adopt a Code of Conduct, a copy of which is enclosed. We are asking that you and your child read and sign the enclosed Code of Conduct and return it to Theresa in the Religious School Office if you think your child might attend any of the programs. The signed Code of Conduct will apply to the entire year. The Code of Conduct will also be available on the B’nai Israel website: www.congregationbnaiisrael.org/coc.pdf We look forward to your child’s involvement and thank you in advance for your support. If you are interested in joining the Youth Group Committee to help plan the activities, have any suggestions for activities or have any questions please call me or e-mail me. L’shalom, Lori L. Underberger If you would like more information, please call Lori
