Anshei Darom News

Region President Hank Needle is passing along some good news about Anshei Darom:

I just received my 2005 Spring Edition of the Camp Ramah newsletter and wanted to let you know there are two very wonderful articles in it relating to the Anshei Darom Region of the FJMC. If you came to the retreat, Ramah will be sending your own copy as a small token of their appreciation for the generous donation to the camp.

One of our region's founding members, Dr. Gene Sacks (West End Synagogue Men's Club) was elected president of the Ramah Board in November. He is a founding member of the board (1996) and has been a supporter of the Ramah movement for many years. Gene was president of his Men's Club and also a VP in the Anshei Darom Region. He has always been a tremendous supporter of the region and of our ongoing efforts. Congratulations to the Good Doctor from all of us.

In the same newsletter, there is an article entitled "Anshei Darom Gives New MARP Mobile" and a photo of this gift that was given to the camp by our Region and by the members who attended our annual retreat two years ago. The MARP Mobile was presented to Camp Ramah last summer. This kind of giving is a pillar of the region and will draw more people and clubs to our region's activities. Thanks to Norm Hamburger, Past President of the Anshei Darom Region, for these fine efforts.

Thanks for passing on the good news, Hank!
