One of my favorite parts of our Annual Meeting is celebrating some of the people who have gone above and beyond to help our Temple thrive. This year, I am happy to present the President’s Cup to Cathy and Mark Segel, long time members and volunteers. And Rabbi Miller will be presenting this year’s Volunteer Spirit Awards to Rae Monchnik and Alissa Vanderkooi – I hope to see many of you there to help us congratulate all of them!
