Purim: It's Not Just for Kids

Shir Hadash is hosting a Purim party for all adults—singles and couples—at Rocky Vander's Cafe, 698 N. Milwaukee Avenue, Prospect Heights (immediately south of Palatine Road), from 7 to 11 p.m. on Saturday, February 23. See friends and make new ones. The party will feature a DJ, dance floor, cash bar, and Italian dinner buffet.  Potluck dessert—please bring hamantaschen (prizes given for the best homemade hamentaschen!), and other desserts. We’ll also play party games! Come as you like or as you want. Costumes are encouraged. The cost is $20/person. (Festivities start and run throughout the evening, but if you have to miss dinner, come at 9 p.m. for $10). REQUIRED: RSVP by February 20 (we need to give the restaurant a head count!) by sending an e-mail to membership@shir-hadash.org or calling Rebecca at (847) 509-9951. Prepayment is appreciated; please send your check to the Shir Hadash office; cash or check only at the door. For more information about Shir Hadash, visit our website at www.shir-hadash.org.
