Congregation Day

Congregation Day & Annual Meeting

Sunday, June 22 | Temple Beth El, Aptos

A new tradition for Temple Beth El! Join us for a joyful day of connection and community! You are invited to a special Congregation Day filled with schmoozing, music, dancing, and a silent auction fundraiser.

All ages welcome!  Bounce House.  A magician. An open mic which will include Camp Kayetz kids and the Women's Song Circle. Please contact Rabbi Shifra to sign up for the open mic.

Enjoy a delicious brunch, appetizers, mimosas, and desserts as we come together to celebrate our community, reflect on the past year, and look ahead to what’s next.

Talk to members representing a vast array of different activities and committees and discover ways to get involved. Join a team to compete in a fun-filled scavenger hunt. 

There is no cost to attend. Just bring your ruach (spirit), your dancing shoes, and your love for our vibrant Temple Beth El family!

As a bonus, a security training precedes the festivities at 9am for those who wish to conveniently add this to their day.  Following the Security Training there is a Congregation meeting at 11am where we will be approving the slate of Board Officers for next year, provided a short overview of the budget and hear from our Board President, Wendy Strimling.

We’re putting together a Silent Auction, and that’s where YOU come in! We’d love your help with the following:

  • Favorite Restaurants: Let us know your go-to spot so we can reach out for a donation. Got a contact there? Even better!
  • Golf Courses: Where do you love to play? Share your suggestions and any connections you might have.
  • Wineries: We’re looking to include some wine-themed packages—tell us your favorites!
  • Destinations: Do you have a timeshare or second home you’d be willing to donate for a weekend getaway? Making memories is what this is all about.
  • Local Business Owners: Looking for a great way to get the word out to our members? Provide a gift certificate or consider being a sponsor.If you’re not sure or have questions—call us or email us! We’re here to help and we want to make this celebration the best it can possibly be.
