Shidduchim, the Dating Scene at Penn, and the Baalat Teshuva | Beyond BT - For Baalei Teshuva and Other Growth Oriented Jews

Shidduchim, the Dating Scene at Penn, and the Baalat Teshuva Beyond BT - For Baalei Teshuva and Other Growth Oriented Jews: "Beyond BT/SerandEz Shabbaton
Join us for the 3rd BBT Shabbaton in Kew Gardens Hills on Shabbos Nachamu, August 15-16, 2008.

Please join us for a full Shabbos program including relaxed catered meals and personal thoughts on the themes of Integration, Inspiration and Individuality. There will also be a Melave Malka with the latest incarnation of the BBT Jam Band.

Low price of $50 per person - Family and individual discounts available. We will provide accomodations.

Email us at beyondbt@gmail.com to register."

I spoke with David Lynn (Chaim Lynn's brother) who lives in Kew Garden Hills. One of our original 17 single Passaic guys asked the usual questions regarding percentage of singles versus families, female to male ratio, Hashkafa etc. I was satisfied with the answers as well as all the additional details: All meals will be together @ the Shul, inclding a Malava Malka. Plenty of relaxed time to socialize and interact with each other. All included for only $50!

I believe the phone number that I e-mailed everyone which was for David L. (not Mark) was wrong (off by one digit). The first three numbers after the area code are 992 {not 922}. I told him that I would definitely go, and asked him how the arrangements with the Shabbos host will be handled. He assured me that it could all be done via e-mail, no problem.

I am sure they appreciate early registration, however David did say that you can sign up until the end of this week. They are hoping for a group of over 75 people maybe even up to 120 people, some Passaic residents have already registered, some people from West Hempstead, and yes people from Brooklyn!

Wherever anyone goes for Shabbos Nachamu- Hatzlacha Rabba! May we all meet our Zivug!
