Empty Nesters Sponsored Programs

The B'nai Tikvah Empty Nesters encompasses over 200 Synagogue families who are loosely defined as having children of college age or older and who are interested in joining their peers at cultural and social programs with a Jewish slant.  Over the past three years, this has included Shabbat dinners, featured speakers, movie and book reviews, field trips to sites of Jewish significance, concerts, etc. The Empty Nesters' events are a great way to renew old ties or make new friends and keep active in synagogue and Jewish community life
