FYI
Yankele - I did post Batya's birthday - it's in pink!!!!
Mendy - is it really only 6 hours? - is that by car or by plane? cuz you know the Goldstein family will once again be spending Pesach in NewYork ( yuk yuk) and not sunny Florida and we are looking for something to do for the 2 days of Chol Hamoed - my parents are going to rent a bus so that we can all travel together somewhere - so if it is only a 6 hour drive..........
If anyone has any suggestions as to where we can go as a family - remember we might invade your home - just ask SHaya and Devorah Leah - we did it to them 2 years ago!!! please post your ideas on line for us to see - thanks!

Dear Yankele,
I am sure that I speak for everyone who reads this blog - Boruch Hashem for Shlichus opportunities or we would never get to see our Deitsch cousins on the blog! - first Hindy and now Mendy - thanks for all the pictures!!!!
Any by the way - this past Shabbos night - the Goldstein siblings got together at this great restaurant called the Pasta Factory in NJ - only 45 min away and the food was great - if you want to try something different - call Asher for directions - it's worth a trip!

A Sixty Year Anniversary for Jewish Education
Rivka Chaya Berman - Lubavitch.com
Rabbi & Mrs. Edelman receive an award from Harold Grinspoon & Diane TrodermanSpringfield, MA — American cultural icons like Dr. Seuss and basketballs were born in Springfield, Massachusetts, and when Lubavitch of Greater Springfield celebrated its 60th anniversary this week, it claimed iconic status in the realms of Jewish education and unity.At the anniversary banquet dinner, an announcement of a $1.5 million building campaign for Chabad of Greater Springfield’s Lubavitcher Yeshiva Academy sent ripples through the crowd. LYA ’46 alum, Oscar Plotkin, chair of the event, and Jeffrey Kimball are among the forces behind the initiative to enhance the school’s award-winning library, science lab and preschool.LYA, distinguished as the first Jewish day school to receive accreditation from the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, is the flagship of Lubavitch's educational activities, which include a NAEYC accredited preschool, Hebrew school, Hebrew High and adult education classes. The Hebrew school offers an “education that has inspired passionate young Jews,” said Susan Kline, President of the Jewish Federation of Western Massachusetts, whose children attended the Hebrew school.When LYA opened in 1946, public schools reigned as a gateway to prosperity and acceptance in America. Fulfilling the mission set by Rabbi Joseph I. Schneersohn, the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, to start a Jewish Day School, required creativity and persistence. Pinchus Veiler, a Chabad chasid, would wiggle his way in through front doors, stride over to the piano, and play a few classical pieces to warm parents up to the idea. Rabbi David Edelman, Chabad-Lubavitch emissary with his wife Lillian in Springfield for over 50 years, said times have changed. “Now parents are proud that their children go to Yeshiva,” he said. The problem today is intermarriage, and the solution, said Rabbi Edelman, is Jewish education.LYA Principal Rabbi Noach Kosofsky said Rabbi Edelman’s presence as a “person of peace and kindness” is key to Chabad-Lubavitch's endurance and growth. Springfield’s Jewish community of 12,000 has grown up with Lubavitch. Three orthodox synagogues are in the area, and there is a Holocaust resource center, JCC, Jewish nursing home and free loan society. The support of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation provides sizable day school tuition incentives to Jewish children in Western Massachusetts. Innovative holiday programs offered by Chabad have received Grinspoon grants. Chabad-Lubavitch “has a place in the mainstream community. It is viewed as a partner,” said Esther Kosofsky, Director of the Resource Center for Jewish Education and a Chabad respresentative. A mark of Chabad’s position as a community player is LYA’s inclusion as a beneficiary of the Federation of Western Massachuetts’ annual campaign.Mark Dindas, Executive Director of the Springfield JCC, was quick to laud Chabad-Lubavitch for its role as a resource when JCC Maccabi Games were hosted in Springfield and for its work with Russian Jewish immigrants. “I personally enjoy working with Rabbi Kosofsky because we very often see eye to eye on things, and we all feel we are in this line of work for the same purpose.”

Celebration Dinner
Mazal Tov to Bubby and Zaidy Edelman and to Esther and Noach Kosofsky on their tireless work and effort in making the Yeshiva and Springfield community into what it is today. We heard how beautiful the dinner was and that the guest speaker was outstanding! Unfortunately, many of us were not able to attend the dinner. We would love to see some pictures of the event if possible. So, from all who attended, I'm sure there is someone who took pictures. So, please post a few so we can all share in this special occassion.
