Thank you for you kind wishes! I agree about the synagogue and would do that if we belonged to a congregation. I worked for a temple when we were living in Los Angeles earlier this year and, alas(!), that would have been our perfect solution. However, we just moved to Westchester three months ago and haven't yet settled on one. Membership fees would be a real hardship right now so we decided to put it off until we are able to really "shop around", go to services, talk to people, etc. Unfortunately our [...] 67 187 48_Anyone want to help with this particular battle?13_SCJP Approval25_scjp-approved@shamash.org30_Mon, 2 Jan 2006 18:11:28 -0500885_- Subject: Anyone want to help with this particular battle?

Andi, I've never been to a bris at a JCC or YWHA,but I'd think either would be a fine place to have it. You seem also to be concerned about the cost of the room rental though so I thought I'd mention a few additional possibilities. Many East Coast apartment buildings have rooms that tenants can rent for events. These go by a variety of names such as community, party, or recreation rooms. Check with your rental office. Even if your own building doesn't have one they may know of a nearby building [...] 351 110 52_Re: Anyone want to help with this particular battle?13_SCJP Approval25_scjp-approved@shamash.org30_Mon, 9 Jan 2006 13:42:20 -0500432_- Subject: Re: [SCJ-PARENTING] Anyone want to help with this particular battle?

If you look in their december archives, you'll see post after post after post about Xmas, but absolutely NOTHING about any other holiday.
