Boulder
chorus opens Jewish
festival
Shir HaLev, the
Boulder Jewish Chorus, will be opening the Boulder Jewish Festival at
11 a.m. on Sunday, June 15, on the Pearl Street Mall. Shir haLev
features Pardes Levavot member Fred Berkelhammer.
The chorus, in its third year of opening the festival, has been living
up to its name (Song of the Heart) by singing in assisted living
facilities and Jewish congregations this fall, winter and spring. "We
are a community chorus, so we love singing for elders and bringing such
varied and beautiful Jewish music into our community," says Zhenya
Gallon, acting director.
Chorus members are drawn from almost every congregation in Boulder, as
well as from the unaffiliated community. "We are varied in age and
musical experience, but we are united by our love for singing and for
the rich heritage of Jewish music - whether well-known or unfamiliar -
that we perform," she adds.
Getting
Involved
From the
Shepherd of the Hills Bulletin
Community Infant
Program (CIP) – There is
an on-going need for disposable diapers for young families with
children. You can bring them to the church. Thank you!

Three
guys are about
to be executed, and they are asked what they wish to have for their
last
meal.
The
Italian responds, 'Peperoni Pizza,' which he is served and then he is
quickly executed.
The Frenchman requests a Filet Mignon, which he is served
and then he is promptly executed.
The Jew requests a plate of strawberries.
"STRAWBERRIES????"
"Yes,
Strawberries."
"But
they are out of season!"
"So,
nu, I'll wait . . . ."
