TEAM EMANU-EL 2009

On August 30, 2009, over 50 congregants participated in Emanu-El's first metric Century  and Chai bike ride. Lead by Rabbis Sydney Mintz and Ryan Bauer, congregants gathered at the synagogue for breakfast before heading out on their designated routes. Over 20 additional congregants volunteered to assist the riders in numerous ways: laying arrows along both routes, massage, serving food at rest stops, health care professionals and cheerleaders!  This event reminded people why Congregation Emanu-El is so special.  

Community was built.  Healthy bodies and spirits were connected. Participants were so inspired that discussions are already in the works for doubling participants for our 2010 event!  Stay tuned!
