Hey Everybody,
Hope your Monday was great. I want let you know happy I am about the
turnout we had for Shabbat. Due to the great success your Hillel
board has decided to have the next Shabbat catered as well (instead of
just dessert). The next Shabbat will be on Sept. 19th, Blue Room in
Talley, 7 pm. Looking forward to seeing all of you again.

P.S. Make sure you RSVP so we order enough food :)
