Hey friends,
A few items for Kol haKfar -- the traditional egalitarian minyan downtown:
1 - We're gathering this Friday night at Anya and Adam's loft
2 - We're having a leadership meeting because we need some help at the top
3- It's Purim Monday night
-----
1 - Anya and Adam are hosting the minyan this Friday night at 6pm. Davening will be followed by a light kiddush, please feel free to contribute a tasty morsel:
Anya Kamenetz and Adam Berenzweig, 6pm
138 Broadway #4C at Bedford Ave
Williamsburg, Brooklyn
(Take the L to Bedford, walk south.)
(Walk across the W'burg bridge, they're at the base of the Bridge.)
(Take the J/M/Z to Marcy ave, walk west)
-----
2 - Speaking of Anya, we're looking for more help at the top. For a very long time Anya coordinated the scheduling of hosts for Kol haKfar, and she's decided to hand off the mantle after being a huge help. The minyan will have ameeting at Zachary's place to recruit a new scheduler, and to solicit more ideas and thoughts from minyan leaders as to what we can do to keep things running smoothly.
Zachary's place -- Monday night, March 16th, 7pm. Dinner will be served.
Please RSVP to kolhakfar@yahoo. com to confirm that you can make it.
What does it take to be a leader? Show up at the meeting, have an interest in being a part of the team, and be willing to spend a modicum of time helping out. It doesn't take much to make a big difference.

3 - Purim starts Monday night. There are no shortage of fun activities around town, but if you'd like to show up en masse, here's what Kol haKfarnikim have done in the past:
Megillah reading Monday night
Go to the wacky, orthodox (separate seating) Charles Street Schul at the corner of Charles and West Fourth, probably at 5:30ish pm. Be in costume! There will be a very kosher reading of the megillah, tons of people in costume, and time to enjoy the lovely, old, idiosyncratic synagogue. It's seriously a fun and interseting evening. Then we'll schlep to the....
Party at Sixth Street Community Synagogue
This is where the downtown people party -- at a funky old orthodox schul with a large social space. There will be a huge band, drinks, etc until very, very late. It's $10 at the door with a costume, and you can pre buy tix online at eastvillageshul. com. It's at 325 E. 6th St between 1st and 2nd Aves. They'll probably have their own megillah reading too, so you could start your evening there.
