Sunday night of chol ha’moed Sukkos, October 8 at 8:45 p.m., the entire community is invited to a simchas beis ha’shoeivah at Yeshiva Sh’or Yoshuv. At that time, presenters will announce the Long Island Synagogue and Social Hall that will soon be built. The long-awaited project will result in a state-of-the-art
multilevel facility for simple or elegant simchas. The plan allows for fixed-price weddings as well as luxurious “à la carte” affairs. It will enable local families to utilize a wonderful nearby alternative for their special occasions. Planners expect the building effort to take 18 months to complete.
The project is a nonprofit effort of the Davis Memorial Fund, led by Rabbi Dovid Greenblatt. Rabbi Greenblatt plans for the building to be a beautiful, state-of-the-art destination which will be a welcome addition to our bustling community.
Community rabbanim and leaders have expressed their support and interest in this exciting project. The multiyear effort for approval received the wonderful support of many local government officials, including Hempstead Town Supervisor Anthony Santino, Hempstead Town Deputy Supervisor Anthony D’Esposito, Councilman Bruce Blakeman, and Nassau County Bridge Authority Chairman James Vilardi. A large group of local Jewish leaders, including Yeshiva of South Shore Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Mordechai Kamenetzky and many others, worked together with local officials to get this major project approved.
The simchas beis ha’shoeivah celebration will be in Yeshiva Sh’or Yoshuv. The yeshiva today has close to 200 students and is a respected “Torah-home” for men of all ages. The yeshiva is open around-the-clock, with wonderful shiurim for those wishing to grow in their Torah learning. Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Naftoli Jaeger, shlita, and many others in the yeshiva leadership have participated in the effort of getting the project to succeed. The yeshiva is glad to be the host of this exciting simchas beis ha’shoeivah!
Entertainment will include live music with Eitan Katz and catering in the sukkah by Catering by Michael Schick. The generous corporate sponsors for the evening include Gourmet Glatt, Seasons, Emporio, Birch Event Design, and Luxe Events.
Planners are counting on the generosity of our community to make this project a reality. Please reserve building dedications by contacting Dovid Greenblatt at the Davis Memorial Fund, 516-295-0296, or at davismemorialfund@gmail.com.
Come this chol ha’moed Sukkos and celebrate this wonderful announcement together with our community!
