Grandparents Circle

(grand·peh·ruhnts sur·kl)

1. Noun
An amazing effort which has given grandparents the opportunity to connect and engage, not only with their grandchildren, but with friends and community too. We meet with authors, listen to stories, watch movies, do art projects and so much more! We gather together to enjoy Jewish tradition and get together for Shabbat celebrations. And we always have more in store! Join this fun, joyful group.
