Dear Gentlemen,
Thank you for joining us yesterday at the Perlmuters' home for a town hall meeting and expressing your ideas.
The ideas that were expressed can be summarized as follows:
A. Mixed events: mixed large and/or small shabbos tables,shabbatons, mixed events with facilitators.
A1. Non-mixed shabbos tables: where families in a structured way meet guys and girls and think of good matches
B. Dating workshops: communication, presentation, expectations, profile/resume.
C. Adopt a Single: local families adopt singles and provide them with companionship and guidance throughout the shidduch process and serve as their advocates no matter what.
D. YLS and Passaic shadchanim need better PR: ad in the Yeshiva Ketana guide, etc.
E. Meet the shadchan day was overall approved.
If I missed anything or you have something to add, please let me know.
I have a list and contact information of the attendees. If you do not want your information shared with other singles, please let me know, since the attendees wanted to be in touch with other singles, and I would like to distribute the list.
If you would like that others daven for you, please email your Hebrew name and your mother's Hebrew name.
Finally, my wife and I know a number of single girls. If you would like us or others help you with shidduch suggestions, please email me your profile and, if you have, your photo.
Follow up steps will be discussed separately.
Again, thank you very much for showing up last night and contributing at the open forum. May this, IY"H, lead to the events you find helpful and, ultimately, enable you find your bashert.
Good Shabbos,
Bentzion

Posting from Aharon Moshe Sanders:
The was the intial e-mail as follow up to our shidduchim meeting. This private Blog is being proposed as an electronic posting forum by which we can stay in touch. Everyone who's email was sent to me by Boris has been invited to become an author on this blog. This Blog has been set to be only visible to authurs of this blog. With your permission I would like to be able to suggest actual shidduchs here so that follow ups can be made in their proper time.
Proper conduct as far as keeping people's private information private should be adhered to. I do not expect any blanket approvals and do require feedback to proceed. Also I would like to propose that interested married couples be invited to participate, especially since we require their help in reading the Shidduchs. Things can actually be proposed and implemented right here. Please help to keep this dialogue going.
