We are excited to announce that our Community-wide Grand Opening Celebration will be held on Sunday, September 30, 2007. The celebration will take place during Chol Hamoed Sukkot, a festive time for all of us. It will be free of charge and is being chaired by CJHS parents Kim Frankel, Sandy Levin and Lori Rabinowitz.
8:00 a.m. Join us for a special service for Chol Hamoed Sukkot
Rabbi Goldberg will officiate at a special service at Northwest Suburban Jewish Congregation (NSJC), 7800 W. Lyons Street in Morton Grove. Feel free to bring your lulav and etrog. Following the service, refreshments will be set up outside the synagogue. Everyone at the service, and all of the walkers, will be able to prepare healthy snacks to take on the walk.
9:15 a.m. Journey with us to our new home
Please join us on a Torah procession from our Morton Grove home to our new, permanent home in Deerfield. The walk, which is being chaired by Miriam Rudolph and Inez Altman, will be approximately 9.5 miles. The walkers will stop for a light dairy lunch (provided by CJHS) around 12:30 p.m., before they reach our new site. There will be a police escort and a medical van.
1:00 p.m. Community-wide celebration
The entire community is invited to join us as we greet the Torah procession and rejoice as the Torahs are taken to their new home. This festive celebration will include simcha dancing and a brief program under an open tent. Following the program, the community is invited to tour the building and enjoy dairy desserts. Parking is available. Tours will be given every 20 minutes and will continue until everyone who would like to see the school has had the opportunity to do so. Mincha will be held around 3:30 p.m.

We hope you will join us for all of these events, but if you cannot attend them all, we know you won't want to miss the community-wide celebration at 1:00!
If you plan to attend the service and participate in the walk, you may park your car in our school's parking lot in Deerfield on Sunday morning. For your convenience, buses will leave the Deerfield site at 7:30 a.m. to transport participants to NSJC; therefore, your car will be waiting for you at the conclusion of the event. This is a one-way bus only.
