PJ Library Plans a Cookbook Fundraiser

celiat@jcfl.com (Celia Triplett) — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 19:48:57 +0000

The PJ Library is known for delivering free, high-quality Jewish books and CDs to young children’s mailboxes each month. Now, The PJ Library is moving into the kitchen.

To raise funds to support this popular program, The PJ Library is planning a cookbook, and the committee has issued a call for kosher-style recipes. Each recipe submission must be printed on an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper, with ingredients separated from the directions. You may include the name of your child’s favorite PJ Library book at the bottom.

Please be sure to include your name and contact information, in case there are questions regarding the recipe. You may submit more than one recipe for consideration, but the committee cannot guarantee they will all be printed. All members of the community are encouraged to submit recipes.

Join the Celebration!
JCL ANNUAL MEETING, SEPTEMBER 19, 6:30 P.M., AT THE JCC

Picture this: One of the highest profile events staged in the Jewish community each year – and you’re invited. You can even sit on the first row if you’d like and your friends and family can come along too. In fact, everyone is invited to the Jewish Community of Louisville’s Annual Meeting on Sunday, September 19, 6:30 p.m. at the Jewish Community Center. (Please note changed venue.)

Save the date and get your reservation in early to maintain your front-row seating advantage. Meet and greet the JCL’s new president/CEO Stu Silberman, who will be there to meet and greet with his wife, Alison. Champagne, hors d’oeuvres will be served during what promises to be the best show in town!

“I am really excited to be chairing this year’s JCL Annual Meeting,” said Dr. Karen Abrams. “We have lots to celebrate. During the evening we will be introducing our new CEO, showcasing a wonderful group of award winners and presenting a program for the community that focuses on our Jewish journey going forward. The JCC is up and running and will be all dressed up for the occasion.” She promises some surprises too and states this won’t be a “typical” annual meeting!
