On February 17, more than
200 men and women attended
Yours Truly Needlepoint's
Trunk Showing of custom*
designed needlepoint. The
showing was held from 10
a.m. to 5 p.m. at the home of
Lynn Lerner. Over 500 hand
painted items were for sale.
The profits from the showing
were $1800 and this amount
has been donated to the
Foundation of the Charlotte
Jewish Community, Inc.
French pastries, catered
by Baker’s Unlimited in
Matthews, were enjoyed by
the people while they shop*'
ped. Exquisite items such as
bell pulls, oriental designs,
large wall hangings, tote
bags and an 8 x 12 rug were
beautifully displayed and
choices were difficult to
make.
A constant flow of people
kept Lynn and the many
women who helped her dur
ing the day very busy. These
women are Arlene Karp,
Brenda Meltsner, Jill
Newman. Lynn Cojac, Cathy
Reiss, Jean Finkelstein,
Ellen Fligel, Pebbie Polk,

The lovely invitation for the

This was indeed an ex
citing day for Yours Truly

this showing.

plans for a telephone cam
paign to reach all those Tem
ple members who have not as
yet had the opportunity to
make their 5 year pledge for
the community Project.
Stressing that education is
the backbone of each Temple
and the source of Jewish
commitment. Levin and
Perlin were joined by Rabbis
Rocklin and Krantzler in
urging each and every Tem
ple member to participate to
the fullest possible extent.
Because the prospect of
new JCC faciliiies has
generated so much excite
ment, the rabbis and
presidents feel the excite
ment of building the educa
tional facilities may have
received less notice.
They emphasized that this
PHASE I of the Project is
building more than half of
the facilities needed by each
Temple. The land, roads,
landscaping, classrooms,
lounges and access to recrea
tional facilities will make for
a new kind of positive
Jewish education for
children and adults. Having
these facilities already in
place will greatly enhance
the completion of Phase II,
the building of the sanc
tuaries and social halls.
The telethon will be con
ducted with those to be call
ed receiving ample prior
notice. The goal is for each
each pledge to average $1800
(100 times CHAI).
Wanted For Groundbreaking
As the building committee
steps up its operations, the
public relations committee
has begun to anticipate the
celebration of a major event
in Charlotte Jewish history,
groundbreaking. Plans for
the gala occasion are now in
formation. Ann Yudell, a
member of the committee, is
already at work looking for
musicians to play in a mar
ching band.
“If you own and play an
instrument which can be car
ried in a band, we want
you!” said Yudell, herself a
band musician. “It doesn’t
have to be just a brass or
woodwind instrument. After
all, the Project is so novel
and unusual that our band
should be too. That means
that guitar or banjo players
are invited along with accor-
dianists and glocken-
spielers.”
Mrs. Yudell noted that
potential drummers might
not have instruments but
that the PR committee would
work on getting some for
practice and for the ground
breaking.
Interested participants
should call Ann Yudell at
366-8280 or the Foundation at
366-0366.
