Join us for “TheRetreat” from June 7th to June 10th; Rabbi Gordon will be the rabbinic Scholar-in-Residence
TheRetreat is “a Jewish Men’s Gateway” to fun, friends and learning, sponsored by The New England Region of the Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs (NER FJMC). TheRetreat will take place on June 7th through June 10th at Camp Ramah in Palmer, MA, just a 75-minute drive west of Boston along the Mass Turnpike. Rabbi Gordon will be the rabbinic Scholar-in-Residence.
TheRetreat consists of a wonderful mix of relaxation, sports, eating, learning, prayer, spirited singing and camaraderie. A major highlight of the schedule is our Scholar(s) in Residence, who deliver multiple inspiring presentations. Other signature activities include the famed Minyan in the Grove, Hearing Men’s Voices, our Saturday Night Social Event. This year will add several new items to that list, including our first annual Friday afternoon Golf tournament.
First time participants are especially welcome, and enjoy a discounted rate. The reasonable fee covers all food (kosher), lodging, recreational activities, and study materials. Financial aid is available, and is handled in a very confidential manner by our registrar.
Current membership in a synagogue or Men’s Club is not required for attendance, and Jewish men of all traditions are welcome. So please join us for a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a great getaway with Jewish men from throughout New England.
