Chidush – Did You Know: Thank you Cathy Drourr for arranging for the Jupiter SWAT Team, Town of Jupiter and Police Representatives to visit TBA for discussions on our planned Chidush security measures and updating our Emergency Response Plans (ERP). They were very impressed and pleased with our planned camera and building access restricted controls and offered support on updating our ERP. At their suggestions you will see some new security signage on our property. The Security of The One School, Religious School children, staff and congregants are obviously very important to us.

Edie Wolf led our interesting and enjoyable discussion of Boston Girl by Anita Diamant. The TBA Book Club is continuing over the summer. Our next meeting is on Monday, June 6th at 10:00am at the Temple when we will be discussing The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishigur o: Kazuo Ishiguro's classic ‘Is a profoundly compelling portrait of the perfect English butler and of his fading, insular world postwar England. At the end of his three decades of service at Darlington Hall, Stevens embarks on a country drive, during which he looks back over his career to reassure himself that he has served humanity by serving “a great gentleman.” But lurking in his memory are doubts about the true nature of Lord Darlington’s “greatness” and graver doubts about his own faith in the man he served. A tragic, spiritual portrait of a perfect English butler and his reaction to his fading insular world in post-war England. A wonderful, wonderful book.’ After our book discussion we will be having lunch at Berry Fresh Café, 3755 Military Trail, at Frederick Small Road. For the summer session, please RSVP (cktenenbaum@gmail.com or 561-744-3010) and let me know whether you are planning to come to the book discussion AND if you plan to join us for lunch afterwards. Information about the books we will be reading for our meetings July 11th and August 1st has been sent out. If you have not received this list, please let me know. Thanks. CK SOCIAL ACTION: ST. GEORGE’S SOUP KITCHEN Lauren Weinstein & Eric Weiner Our volunteers serve hot, healthy dinners to the needy at St. George's Episcopal Church, in Riviera Beach, the 3rd Monday evening of every month. The meals are prepared in the kitchen at Temple Beth Am on that Monday afternoon. We would like to thank our March and April volunteers for all their kindness and hard work! John Marzina, Richard Remick, Ralph Van Baalen, Nancy Breitbarth, Bob Feller, Audrey Ades, Lisa Blatt, Keren Blatt, Asher Blatt, Lois Prokocimer, Bill Prokocimer, Marcy Morris and Michael Kenna. If you can't volunteer on Monday nights...but would like to help, please drop off boxes of penne pasta or elbow macaroni (no substitutions) one week before the 3rd Monday of the month to the Temple. Our next Soup Kitchen will be May 16, 5:00pm to 6:30pm. If you would like to volunteer, contact Lauren Weinstein at luvbanjo@gmail.com or Eric Weiner at ericmweiner@gmail.com Lauren Weinstein & Eric Weiner 6 MEN’S CLUB SCRIBBLES Jack Tenenbaum, President April was seemingly an uneventful month, in that the Men's Club sponsored no major events. However, that does not mean that there has been no activity. The Men's Club during April was more like a duck, apparently floating serenely, but working like crazy below the surface. We are, in conjunction with the Temple and the Sisterhood, planning activities for the 2016 – 2017 year, and looking at new and different activities for the next few years. We hope to offer the TBA community interesting, fun, and informative activities, including some we currently sponsor and new ones as well. May will be a fairly busy month for the Men's Club: On Sunday, May 1, Men's Club volunteers will be preparing and serving the buffet breakfast (lox, bagels, cream cheese, etc.) during the Temple's Annual Congregational Meeting. On Friday, May 13, members of the Men's Club will be barbecuing and serving hotdogs, chicken, etc. for those participating in the annual Yom HaAtzmaut, Israel Independence Day, Celebration and Shabbat Service. The Service will take place on the beach and the barbeque will be in the Pavilion on Marcinski Road and A-1-A. Services start at 5:30pm, and dinner will follow. This summer, from May through August, the Men's Club and Sisterhood will once again be sponsoring dining out events, at various restaurants on a monthly basis. The usual format will be used, order what you want to, then pay for it. As we did last year, we see these dining outs to be opportunities for members of the congregation to get together and enjoy each other's company. Look for announcements in the Scribe, weekly emails from the Temple, and Friday night announcements. We are also planning a trip to a Marlins' game that will include tickets and transportation. It will be very much like the trip that we took to see a Dolphins' game last fall. A tour type bus will pick us up from the Temple Beth Am parking lot, take us to the game where we have seats in a block, and then take us back to the Temple. Because there are many more baseball games during the season, our choices are increased. We will pick the best game available, and announce the opportunity this summer. Watch for details in the Scribe and in the weekly email blasts, Friday night announcements, and flyers in the Temple lobby. In addition, our chartered fishing trips will once again begin and run through the summer. The first fishing trip will take place in the latter part of this month (May). Again, watch the announcements and the Wednesday e-mails for details. For this fall, the Men's Club plans to have a speaker from the League of Women Voters to explain the various amendments that are slated to be on the ballot, not candidates. If you have comments or suggestions, please feel free to call me at (561) 744–3010, or email me at: jtenenbaum@att.net. Jack Tenenbaum, President MORNING SERVICE WITH YIZKOR: Last Day of Passover Friday, April 29, 2016 at 10:00am Yizkor Services are done 4 times a year: the last day of Passover, Shavuot, Yom Kippur and Shemini Atzeret. This special Service is our way of remembering and praying for our departed loved ones. The Yizkor prayers are only permitted to be recited in the presence of others, in a community of other Jews. If you have loved ones who have passed away and you wish to say Yizkor for them, then please join us on April 29th for this Service. 7 ADULT B’NEI MITZVAH 100 WOMEN WHO CARE 100 WOMEN WHO CARE meets at Temple Beth Am May 10th at 5:00pm Do you know of a local not-for-profit that could use $10,000? With a commitment of just 4 hours/year and a quarterly donation of $100 per member, "100 Women Who Care” donates $10,000 every 3 months to local groups that make a positive difference in our community. We are a secular organization and welcome everyone to join us. Please contact Audrey Ades for more information (audade@yahoo.com). 8 Lois Remick SISTERHOOD SCOOP In the news this past month, were articles about Secretary of State John Kerry’s emotional response when he visited Hiroshima, Japan. That got me thinking about how we Baby Boomers, those born the year the bomb was dropped, have experienced so many “mind-boggling” changes in our lifetime. Here is a run down, not necessarily in order: Atom bomb, end of WWll, establishment of the State of Israel, Korean War, first Catholic president, Cuban Revolution, a president assassinated, Vietnam War, integration and the Civil Rights marches, Medicare and Medicaid, moon landing, a president resigns, first unelected president, terrorism on airplanes, Reagonomics, televised impeachment hearings, the Supreme Court selects the president, Gulf Wars, Hurricane Katrina, and our first African-American president. Now... that's a lot of heavy duty life experiences! Your Sisterhood Board is currently working to firm up Sisterhood's calendar of events for July 2016 - June 2017. As soon as the dates are all finalized with Carol Sleeper and the staff, we will distribute copies. This year, we will be holding regularly scheduled, open, monthly Board meetings at TBA and you are invited and encouraged to attend. We want your input, and need your help with myriad programs, activities, and events. As soon as we confirm the monthly meeting day and time, we'll share the information with you. This July, we are offering a unique, 3-session program for women aged 60 and older, developed by the founders of the Arise Foundation. Topics are: 1) Happiness and the Power of a Smile; 2) Positive Mental Attitude is Critical for Optimism, Contentment, and Longevity; and 3) Happiness Through Gratitude. These discussion groups will meet on Thursdays, July 14, 21, and 28 from 1:00pm-2:30pm. Each session is limited to only 15 participants, and will be 90 minutes long. You may sign up for any one, two, or all three sessions. There is no charge to participate, but there is a $5.00 per session fee for refreshments. To sign up, use the flyer you will find in the June issue of the Scribe. In late May or early June, you will receive in the mail your invitation to join Sisterhood for the coming year (effective July 1, 2016 - June 30, 2017). Please complete the membership form, and remit with your dues check ASAP. This past year, we were 125 members strong and enjoyed lots of fabulous activities and programs. Let's keep laughing, playing, working, and learning together. If you have not yet received a copy of your “for-members-only” 2016 Sisterhood Directory, please contact Maril Levy: maril@family-levy.com or 249-6046. Maril will bring copies of the directory to the TBA Annual Congregational Meeting on Sunday, May 1 at 9:30am, so you can get your copy then, if you'd like. Sisterhood is sponsoring an evening at the Maltz Jupiter Theatre, for a one-night only performance of The Bronx Wanderers, on Saturday, Feb. 4, 2017 at 8:00pm. Tickets are $45 per person, with checks made payable to Maltz Jupiter Theatre. Bring your friends and family too. Your form and check must be delivered to TBA (attention Carole Levine) by Sunday, May 1 so Carole can place the group order on Monday, May 2. No requests can be accepted by Sisterhood after May 1, so don't forget! You may bring your order form and check to the TBA Annual Congregational Meeting on Sunday morning, May 1. Questions?

The current pantry, Store House Food Pantry, is located at 430 Center Street in Jupiter. It has been solely operated by the Christian Family Church one day a week (Sundays from 11:45am- 1:00pm) but will soon be expanding its days and hours to serve even more of our most needy neighbors right here in our community. The Food Pantry has refrigeration, freezers and plenty of storage. EVERYONE'S HELP IS NEEDED AND NO TASK IS TOO SMALL TO HELP MAKE THIS LONG AWAITED PANTRY A SUCCESS. HERE'S HOW YOU CAN HELP 1) Ongoing food collection will be located at TBA where you can donate the following: Canned meats (preferably flip top lids) Jelly Cereal Prepackaged "add in" meals (ie: Pastaroni) Pasta Tomato sauces Toiletries (toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, razors) Soups 2) Volunteer a few hours a week or even once a month: Pick up or drop off food Work in the Food Pantry during hours of operation Help sort the donated food and organize them onto the shelves 3) Monetary Donations: Temple Beth Am’s Schafler Family Food & Emergency Fund collects ongoing donations that go directly to the Food Pantry to improve the current facility and to purchase food from co-ops that will sell food at a tremendous discount. PLEASE CALL TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED AND HELP LOCAL FAMILIES IN NEED FEEL MORE SECURE. Robin Schafler at rschafler@aol.com or Marcy Isdaner at marcy@campmataponi.com BRIDGES PINNACLE KIDS Another project we are involved with is Pinnacle Kids; a non-profit to help fill the hunger gap at schools with a "poor" population. Through this program we will be supplying health bars to teachers so they can supplement the nutritional needs of children who appear hungry and lethargic due to a lack of food. We are asking for boxes of health bars to distribute to teachers in underprivileged neighborhoods for these undernourished children. IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO HELP AND WE ARE REACHING OUT TO OUR TEMPLE COMMUNITY TO MAKE OUR SOCIAL ACTION ENDEAVORS A SUCCESS. PLEASE BE INVOLVED AND HELP WITH ANY AND ALL CAUSES WE ARE UNDERTAKING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF LESS FORTUNATE PEOPLE. 11 YOM HAATZMAUT AT THE BEACH - Friday, May 13th 12 TBA KNITTING CLUB MAH JONGG CLUB MAH JONGG CLUB Wednesdays at 12:45pm Cracks, Bams, and Dots!

On the second night of Passover we begin counting the Omer, the 49 day period between Passover and Shavuot. Omer refers to the offering of barley that was brought to the Temple on the 2nd day, and the biblical commandment to count off seven weeks from the time of the offering. Traditionally the Omer period was a time of mourning in memory of the plague which killed thousands of Rabbi Akiva’s students, and festivals were forbidden– all except one day! On the 33rd day of the Omer, legend tells us that the plague ceased and it was a time of great joy. This year the 33rd day, known as Lag B’Omer is May 25. In honor of this minor but festive holiday, HaMakom is having a Family Fun Day on Sunday May 22, from 10:00am-1:00pm. This day will include outdoor activities for the entir e family, with water games, bbq lunch, DIY camp care packages, teacher appreciation, and fun surprises! What surprises? Ok, I’ll give you a hint about one: in Israel it has become tradition to celebrate with bonfires, and field days; here in Florida we can’t make fire–and frankly it’s already hot enough, perfect condition for frozen s’mores! Find out what else we have in store when you join us as we say goodbye school year, hello summer, and happy Lag B’Omer! 16 THE ONE SCHOOL Paula Deakter, Early Childhood Director 17 TEMPLE BETH AM MISHPACHA/FAMILY CENTER 18 MAY 21, 2016 BAT MITZVAH OF HANNAH MURRAY We are proud and honored to announce that our daughter, Hannah Rose, will be called to the Torah as a Bat Mitzvah on May 21, 2016. Hannah is a 7th grade honor student and Vocal major at Bak Middle School of the Arts. Hannah has always loved to sing and began at age 5, as a member of Temple Beth Am’s own Cantor’s Chantors, where her passion for singing blossomed. In addition to singing, Hannah is an avid animal lover. She volunteers every summer at C7 Ranch in Hahira, GA where she helps to teach young children how to care for and ride Florida Cracker Horses. For her mitzvah project, Hannah is volunteering at My Sensory Space’s Zen Den. The Zen Den is a Multi-Sensory Environment for children with Autism and Special Needs. Hannah is responsible for assisting each child during their one hour session by helping them to play, interact and socialize. Hannah is a very compassionate person and this is an amazing opportunity for her to not only bring joy but to gain it as well. She is honored to be part of this amazing company. We are very grateful to Rabbi Alon, Brett Tancer, Cantor Jessica, David Sherman, and Hannah's Religious School teachers at Temple Beth Am for all of their help in preparing Hannah for this incredible day. We are looking forward to celebrating with all our family, friends and congregants on May 21st. As parents, we are extremely proud of Hannah, especially in her attitude towards her friends and family, where she practices a level of kindness not often found in adults, much less children. She is well on her way to leading a life of achievement, service, love and joy. We love her very much. Marcey, Michael and Joshua Murray MAY 28, 2016 BAT MITZVAH OF JULIA LUBARSKY Julia is an honor student at Bak Middle School of the Arts. At Bak she is a strings major and plays the viola. She is also a member of the North Palm Beach swim team and recently competed in the Florida Gold Coast Junior Olympics. In her free time she loves baking and volunteering at The Big and Little Dog Ranch. For her mitzvah project she has created her own healthy dog treats and has been selling them. All the proceeds will go to The Big Dog Ranch which soon will become the biggest no kill shelter in the United States. We are so proud of what a wonderful person you are becoming. Mazel Tov!
