Jews from Around the County Enjoy Chanukah Super Bowl
Whether a bowler or not, everyone had a ball at the “Chanukah Super Bowl”. Close to 100 men, women and children participated in Chabad of Orange County’s first family Chanukah party, held Sunday, Dec. 12 th at Colonial Lanes in Chester.
The highlight of the evening was the grand lighting of the “Bowling Pin Menorah.”
“Chanukah has a message of unity,” said Rabbi Pesach Burston, after Mr. Jack Berkowitz and Dr. Seth Pulver lit the Menorah. “There may be various ‘braches’ of Jews, like the many branches of the Menorah. But they are all part of one Menorah. We are all one people!”
“Tonight’s program exemplifies this,” the rabbi added. In the party room, where the menorah lighting was held, there were Jews from all over the county. Jews who considered themselves Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, non-affiliated, and even a few Chassidim from Kiryas Joel, all took part in this unique event – together. As the Bowling pins glowed with their warm light, everyone sang traditional songs in unison.
The program accommodated exciting activities for the entire family. While bowling to lively music, educational Chanukah videos filled the lane’s screens, and family driedel games further increased the holiday spirit.
The festive party room was filled with booths of creative arts and crafts and other special activities, such as “decorating your own doughnut”. A delicious Chanukah dinner and array of Chanukah treats and desserts was available for all to enjoy.
Chana Burston, the Rabbi’s wife, an experienced educator and teacher, led all of the participating children in a group dreidel game. Each child was granted a turn to spin the dreidel and answer a Chanukah question, and every player had a chance to receive an exciting grab bag prize.
Chabad’s approach is to share the light and beauty of the Jewish heritage with every Jew. The dancing flames of the bowling pin Menorah serves as a reminder that the spirit of Judaism can be incorporated into every aspect of life, including bowling. Celebrating traditions in a fun and creative style adds an exciting dimension to Chanukah and increases the joy of the holiday.
