A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… The United Hebrew clergy and staff will bring you their version of Megillat Esther.

Reading of the Megillah
Please bring a shakable food item such as pasta or rice to be used as a grogger and donated to the Harvey Kornblum Jewish Food Pantry.

  • Join the march to get fundraising raffle and auction items
  • Volunteer to work the day of the event, running a game, serving food, and more
  • Give your artistic talents a workout making signs and decorations
