FROM OUR RABBI
Dear Friends:
I hope this finds you and your family doing well!
This year, the month of May occupies the slice of the Jewish calendar that falls after
Passover but before Shavuot. Tradition teaches that we count the omer during this seven
week period, thereby linking one holiday to the next.
This is not just a season of counting. It’s a season of accounting, and taking stock of
ourselves, and the goals we set.
In that vein, I wanted to return to my vision for the future of Scarsdale Synagogue
Temples Tremont and Emanu-El. As some of you may recall, I shared a detailed vision statement in the
context of my Rosh HaShanah Day 1 morning sermon back in the fall. (You can find the sermon online at
http://goo.gl/QIAqwi.)
Here’s my omer-accounting of my vision for the future, and the successes we’ve had in working toward it.
(1)
Scarsdale Synagogue is built on the notion of inclusivity, where everyone matters. Following
nearly three years of careful study and reflection, our Board recently approved a sweeping change
toward a Pledge Commitment model of financial giving here at the synagogue. We believe that our
community will become ever-more-inclusive, as we affirm to current, former, and prospective members
that being connected to Scarsdale Synagogue is about so much more than a person’s ability to pay. That
same sense of inclusivity is reflected in the fact that: our Religious School has launched Kulanu (all of us)
to better meet the needs of students with diverse learning styles; we held salons earlier this year to
examine current events through a Jewish lens, with an affirmation that we must be inclusive of the wide
range of political perspectives of our congregation; and, our Temple President has convened a working
group to begin studying the feasibility of a capital campaign, one of whose primary goals would be to
make our sanctuary safer and more accessible to everyone who worships with us.
(2) Scarsdale Synagogue is a Shabbat-centered Jewish community. Beyond our lifelong learning
and communal Jewish volunteerism, we seek a community where our membership has the chance to
affirm its Jewish identity through regular and meaningful Shabbat engagement. This year we
strengthened our Shabbat BaBoker experience on Saturday mornings - several of which were specifically
designed as intergenerational Shabbat experiences. (Shabbat BaBoker is our informal Shabbat morning
minyan filled with song, study, and a delicious meal that meets periodically throughout the year.) We
continued to broaden the reach of our Sharing Shabbat initiative to encourage members to have Shabbat
dinner in one another’s homes. We organized an Adult Retreat (new for this year), during which we
reflected on the themes of Shabbat for an entire weekend! And we even began a Shabbat hiking group,
to experience Shabbat in nature.
(3) Scarsdale Synagogue is a place where relationships matter. A synagogue isn’t just a place that
we come to in order to engage Judaism and its values. It’s a place where we do that communally.
Together. In theory, every programmatic initiative we do, and certainly all of the ones already
mentioned above, seek to reinforce, and build on, this core value. Beyond those, let me discuss my own
personal attempt to build relationships with each and every one of you. I am in the midst of reaching out
to every single household in the congregation this year “just because.” As of this writing (in early April)
I’ve managed to reach about one third of you (or your answering machines). Many of those contacts
have resulted in delightful schmoozes - it has been a pleasure to get to know so many of you better! The
calls will continue throughout the spring and summer. But no need to wait for your phone to ring! I’m
always available to schedule time at your request. Feel free to email or call to make an appointment.
The end of the school year isn’t just an opportunity to take an accounting of my vision. It’s also a chance to
for us to do the same with your vision! I hope we’ll have the chance to sit together soon, so that you can
share with me the hopes and dreams of the future that you carry…for yourself, your family, and for our shared
community.
With kindest regards,
Rabbi Jeffrey Brown

COMMUNAL WORSHIP
Saying Kaddish (Part 2)
By Michael Luskin
Shortly after my mother died (in 2012), I wrote a CWC
column in “Shalom” called “Saying Kaddish.” It was
mostly about saying Kaddish for those we knew. Now I
write about saying Kaddish for those we never knew,
and in particular, Holocaust victims. This column is
prompted by a trip Judy and I took a year ago to
Warsaw, Krakow (including Auschwitz-Birkenau), and
Berlin and by the upcoming Yom HaShoah (May 4-5 this
year).
Our trip was a long time coming. I’d never been keen on
confronting what I knew I’d see. What is this fear of
visiting a concentration camp, a death camp? Why so
anxious? In Krakow, at the Remu Cemetary Synagogue,
I spoke with an Israeli tourist. He told me that he, too,
had felt anxious about his planned visit to Auschwitz, but
then he added: If my father could survive two years at
Auschwitz, then I can survive two hours there. He was
right. I lost the anxiety. I made the visit.
It was so empty. We are brought up on images of Nazi
genocide: packed cattle cars; men, women and children
lined up on the railroad platform at Birkenau so the SS
could sort and separate them; crowds being pushed into
the gas chambers; skeletal, wide-eyed survivors in their
striped prison garb, staring out of their shelf-like bunks
at their liberators at the end of the war, too weak to
move. But now there is no one in the single cattle car
that sits there. The platform is empty. The gas chambers
and crematoria lie in ruins. The bunks are vacant. The
suffering, the horror, are all left to the imagination. But
our imaginations are informed by those iconic
photographs, the ones we’ve all seen and know by
heart. I can’t say which has had more impact on me in
the end: the empty, silent camp, or the photos, or the
interplay between them in my mind’s eye while standing
there. Ingraining those images in our minds and those
of our children and their children is as important as the
visit itself.
So, who were the victims? Yad Vashem has created a
small museum in one of the buildings at Auschwitz. One
of its rooms contains drawings done by child-victims of
the Holocaust, faithfully hand-copied on the walls of the
room in pencil and crayon at child height. One of them is
of a wicker basket of flowers in bloom and is captioned,
in French, “Pour Maman,” for my mama. Another iconic
image, etched in my mind’s eye forever. But what has
this got to do with me?
6
Both Judy’s and my families came to the U.S. before
World War I, so the Holocaust wasn’t about us. Wrong,
so wrong. Six million Jews were murdered in the
Holocaust; four million have been identified. One of the
rooms in the Yad Vashem exhibit at Auschwitz contains
a Book of Names, a print-out of the four million known
victims, listed alphabetically by name, birth date, home
town, and date and place of death. The Book fills the
room. There are dozens of Luskins in it. Some must be
family, those who stayed, or their children. My cousins,
many times removed no doubt, but family; family I
never knew. So, yes, me. I will not forget the Book.
On a lighter note, we spoke with the owner of the
bookstore in the Old Town of Kazimierz, across from the
Remu Cemetary Synagogue where we started our
walking tour of this part of Krakow. She told us about
the filming of the ghetto scenes in “Schindler’s List,”
which were shot in this square. She told us of the
inconvenience – having to cover her windows and close
her store – and she told us of her amazement at the
artificial snow falling in June. But the image that says
“What?!” and sticks in my mind is her description of the
crew’s and actors’ lunch breaks, when she’d see rabbis
dining with SS soldiers! This didn’t happen in real life, of
course, but what if…. What if history had played out
differently? We lost those Luskins and the four million
who’ve been identified and the two million who haven’t.
They are all someone’s family, and there is no better
reason to rise together than to remember them with a
communal Kaddish.
The prayer itself is familiar and comforting, with its
rhythmic repetition, its alliteration. Many rock and sway
as they recite it; it literally moves us. It is always said in
public (a minyan is required), and its completeness
depends on the entire congregation’s responses:
“Amen” and “Y’hei sh’mei raba m’varakh….” and “B’rech
hu” and “T’ush b’chatah….” It’s comforting to know that
the prayer that we know so well is the same prayer,
recited in the same way, as was the prayer recited by
those in whose memories we pray. The connection is
palpable. We rise as one congregation to remember our
own families and all the people in those pictures we can
never forget, all the children who scratched “Pour
Maman” on the wall, all of those named in the Book of
Names, and all of those whose names we’ll never know.
I used to think that we rise together to remember these
victims because they had no one to say Kaddish for
them, but that’s not right. They have us. They, too, are
family.

positive change in the future, and how we can be a part
of those exciting social justice efforts. Lunch is $10 per

CARE2CONNECT
Our Care2Connect committee has one main goal – to reach out and support fellow congregants throughout various
lifecycle events. Members of our committee are here for you, in good times and in hard times, offering support and a
helping hand when needed. Throughout the years, we have provided words of congratulations for births, marriages and
bar/bat mitzvahs, words of sympathy when those among us have lost loved ones, and words of support when others are
not doing so well.
New volunteers are always welcome! There are no meetings to attend or events to schedule on your calendar. Just let
us know what you are interested in doing, how often you are available and the best way to reach you. There is no
requirement for what you would need to do, we are happy to work within your comfort level to help you get involved.
Then, when a need arises that you are comfortable with, our committee will be in touch. Whether you can help out
once a month or once a year, it all adds up to a more supportive and caring temple community! Tikkun Olam,Together.
Other services our network of member volunteers provide include:
Providing/Delivering Meals to homebound members or families during a health crisis;
Checking in via telephone with the ill, elderly and/or homebound;
Visiting an ill or homebound member;
Transportation to a doctor's appointment for an ill or non-driving member;
Hosting a single or widowed member for a holiday meal;
Transportation to services (when available) for an elderly or non-driving member.
If you know...of a Synagogue member who is ill or in the hospital, call the office and let us know. This way the
Rabbi and Cantor can visit and Care2Connect can provide timely support. Don’t assume that we know---we will only
know if you tell us!
For more information, to volunteer or to let us know of a Congregant who could use our support, please contact
Christine Ginsberg at ginzb22@aol.com.

TIKKUN OLAM/SOCIAL ACTION
Scottish Jews Benefitting from American Jewish Community Donations
Written by Professor Joe Goldblatt
Did you know that Scotland is one of the few countries in Europe and in the world that has no official
legislation banning anti-Semitism activities? The reason for this is that in our 1,000 year old history we
have never needed this legislation. However, in recent days, things have dramatically changed.
In 2015, there was a 40% increase in anti-Semitism activity in Scotland. Eight individuals who used
social media to espouse hatred toward Jews were arrested, sentenced, fined or warned. Their actions
were believed to have been motivated by the Israel – Palestine conflict last year.
In an effort to combat future anti-Semitism activities in Scotland, the Scottish Council of Jewish
Communities received a small grant from the Scottish Government to train volunteers to go into public
schools and speak about what it means to be Jewish in Scotland. Fifteen volunteers were trained over
several months. However, the volunteers needed tools to better communicate the rich experience of
the Jewish people in Scotland to young children.
Therefore, I stepped forward and offered to collect Jewish objects for boxes for each of our 32 local
authority school systems. This would have been a daunting task without the immediate help and
enthusiasm of Scarsdale Synagogue's congregant Beth Quinn and many of you. As a direct result of
your generosity the Jewish Objects for Education in Scotland (JOES Boxes) are now being used in local
schools throughout our country.
The boxes contain typical Jewish ritual objects, a curriculum guide and even miniature complete Torahs.
They also include charity boxes that were decorated by the children my wife teaches in the local
religious school of our synagogue.
Many of the children who are experiencing JOES Boxes have never met a Jewish person. Therefore, it
is very special for them to meet one of our volunteers and learn that we are so much like them.
However, we have different objects to share which they find fascinating.
It is our hope that future generations will have less opportunity to promote anti-Semitic activity due to
this innovative program in our public schools. If you would like to donate objects of funds to support
JOES Boxes please contact Beth Quinn at mhwh@optonline.net or myself at drjogldblatt@aol.com.
One day I hope I have the opportunity to thank our American donors in person, however, in the
meantime, please accept my heartfelt thanks on behalf of the 10,000 Jews in Scotland who are
benefitting from your generosity.
Scotland Project
Thank you to everybody who supported this wonderful
project. We have met our goal and the educational
process is continuing in the Schools of Scotland. We are
in regular communication with the leaders of the program
and will keep you posted on the progress

DIRECTOR OF CONGREGATIONAL LEARNING
It’s hard to believe it’s already May - what a great year we have shared together! There are so many
successes to highlight. Here are just a few:
Our Sunday mornings begin as a school community with Kehillah! where we connect through
song and story and as we explore Middot (Jewish values for everyday living) together
Our K-6 students have deepened their understanding of Jewish life and traditions through our
enhanced art program
We launched Ivrit Binu’ah (Hebrew Through Movement) in our younger grades as a groundbreaking way to encounter and explore our sacred language
Our 4th-6th grade students delve deeply into Tefillah (communal worship) through creative immersion in art
projects, basketball games, and midrashic interpretations.
The 4th grade class took a leadership role in encouraging food donations from our student body that directly
support the United Interfaith Food Bank
Cantor Becker introduced an “Introduction to Torah Trope” unit with our 6th grade students
Our Team Tikkun students participated in our Purim celebrations – such a fun evening!…and so much more!
The year is not over – we have lots of fun yet to come – but I do want to highlight our end of year gathering and
celebration on Sunday May 22nd as we close out our 2015-2016 school year with a fantastic program run by our very
own Madrichim (student teachers)! This is definitely not a morning you will want to miss! And don't forget the Celebrate
Israel Parade on June 5. Deadline to purchase your t-shirts is May 1 (a safety requirement for marching this year).
And finally, let me offer a word of gratitude and thanks to all of you, dear families. As I near the conclusion of my first
year here at Scarsdale Synagogue I am deeply moved by the spirit of community I have encountered. Moving forward, I
look forward to continuing to forge and deepen my relationship with each and every one of you.
I’d like to end with the words of the Shehecheyanu, a blessing that marks sacred moments and experiences in our lives:
Baruch Atah Adonai Eloheinu Melech Ha-olam shehecheyanu vi-kimanu vi-higiyanu la-z'man ha-zeh. (Praised are You,
God, who created the world, who grants us life, who sustains us, and who brings us to this very moment).
Together We Grow,
Rabbi Ilyse Glickman

DIRECTOR OF EARLY CHILDHOOD
MAZEL TOTS
The children at Mazel Tots are looking forward to so many fun things in May. Spring
has finally arrived and we are enjoying all the changes spring brings to our new
playground! The garden is blooming, the trees are flowering and the birds are
singing!
We are also getting busy planning our Mother’s Day Tea. Each class has their own
Mother’s Day celebration, where the children make their Mom’s gifts as well as
prepare a lovely brunch for them. We’ll also have a Teacher Appreciation Shabbat and have the
chance to thank our fabulous teachers.
We still have some space for 2, 3 and 4-year-olds in our June Mini-Camp program. The MiniCamp will be in session from May 31st through June 22nd. It’s a camp-like program that bridges the

school is not required. The fee for this program is $850 for 2’s, 3’s and 4’s and $650 for the
Toddlers. If you are interested in knowing more about this program please call our Nursery School
office at 723-3001.
Once again, we will be offering our summer camp program called - Summer Stars. The camp will
run from June 27th through August 12th. The program will serve Toddlers through those entering
Kindergarten. We’ll feature sports, cooking, music, arts and crafts, water play, karate, yoga, soccer,
storytelling and more! Toddlers will meet Monday through Wednesday 9:00-11:15, 2’s, 3’s, 4’s and
5’s will meet Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. or 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.
Mazel Tots and K’tanim will join forces once again for a program on friendship!
SUNDAY, MAY 15TH – 11:00 A.M. – 12:00 P.M.
There will be: stories and songs about friendship, friendship bracelets, a fun project involving fruit,
and SO MUCH MORE! Parents are welcome to stay. Maybe you’ll make some new friends, too!
Just a reminder, if you have not yet seen our school and are interested in a space for next year,
please call to arrange an appointment.
Our fees for the 2016-17 school year are as follows:
3-day 2’s
5-day 2’s, 3’s or 4’s
$5600
$7750

I look forward to talking with you!

DIRECTOR OF YOUTH ENGAGEMENT
Wow, April sure was a fun month. Tax day! Passover! My birthday! April Fool’s Day!
Aaaah, so much fun!! This year, we’ve had some great success with our newest youth
group, SCARPE DIEM (for grades 6 and 7) and last month our synagogue set the record
for sending more kids to Junior Youth Group Kallah than any other synagogue in the NY
area region. Not that it's a contest, but if it were, we would have won. Go us! We also
had a blast celebrating Havdallah and bowling goofily at Bowlmor with SCARTY and
friends. Our K’tanim cuties also had a fun time playing live action Mario Kart with the help
of a few of our lovely Madrichim (teen guides). Don’t worry, folks. No bananas were
harmed in the process. STEWEY also had the chance to build community through the
majesty of art while painting their very own masterpieces at Painting with a Twist. Later
on in the month, our members of Team Tikkun were joined by members of SCARTY to spread some joy and
Pesach spirit over at the Bristal Assisted Living Facility in White Plains. The residents said that our visit was the
highlight of their week!
But enough about April. April is SUPER over now. Let’s see what’s on deck for May!
Volunteering at the Westchester ASPCA Pet Fair in Yorktown Heights! Saturday, May 7th – 10:00
a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at FDR State Park, Yorktown Heights. This is part of our 8th and 9th grade curriculum in
Team Tikkun, but we’d love to invite ALL teens who love animals and want to support this wonderful paws. or
cause. Parents and furry four legged friends are welcome to join as well!
SCARTY Shul-in! Friday, May 13th – Saturday, May 14th – Join us for Shabbat services on Friday night as
we honor the graduating High School seniors and the rest of the youth group members who’ve been hard at work
all year. After services are over, we’ll be spending the night here for a TV-themed shul-in! More details to come.
Mazel Tots and K’tanim will join forces once again for a program on friendship! Sunday, May 15th –
11:00am – 12:00pm immediately following Religious School. There will be: stories and songs about
friendship, friendship bracelets, a fun project involving fruit, and SO MUCH MORE! Parents are welcome to stay.
Maybe you’ll make some new friends, too!
An evening of basic training with SCARPE DIEM! Saturday, May 21st – 6:00pm – 8:00pm. Open to all
6th and 7th graders. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be in the Israeli Army, now’s your chance to find out!
This will be way more fun, though, because SCARPE DIEM isn’t currently at war with anyone. But when we are,
we’ll sure be ready! Come celebrate Havdalah, get down n’ dirty, and learn how to behave like a soldier from a
real live Israeli. This will be similar to the Messy Olympics described below, but with more camouflage, water
pistols, falafel, and nerf ammo.
STEWEY Messy Olympics! Sunday, May 22nd – 11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. immediately following
Religious School. This program is open to our 3rd through 5th graders. Be prepared to get messy while we
shave balloons, sift through gooey things, hit me in the face with a pie (maybe), and all kinds of other messy, fun
things. Bring clothes that you don’t particularly care for and an extra change of clothes might be wise, too.
Questions? Comments? YouTube videos of pugs and dolphins becoming friends? Send me a message! I’d love to
hear from you.
Thanks for reading!
