Message

by
Marty Burr

 

 

 

 

halom, this is my first column since taking office as

President ofthe Central Kentucky Jewish Federa-

tion (CKJF). For those who don’t know me. Bar—
bara and I have been residents ofLexington and members of
Temple Adath Israel since I977. We have three children.
none ofwhom live in Lexington. and five grandchildren. I am
a retired IBM‘er and a graduate ofboth the University of
Pennsylvania (BS) and Fairleigh Dickinson University (MBA).

I feel it is appropriate as we begin my term to bring
everyone up to date on what is happening with CKJF.

First ofall. we are currently finishing, under the leadership
ofLeon Cooper, Ellie Goldman. Nancy Hoffman, Judy
Levine, and Sue Ezrine, the I999 charitable gifts campaign.

Right now, this looks like one of the more successful cam-
paigns in recent years.

Secondly, a search committee headed by Nancy Hoffmak
is in the process Hfirittw ir-\\ in...‘ cirrulitlzrtwa for tlic position of 2‘
Iixccume Director. Which has been open since January . 'Ihe 1
search is taking an extended period oftime, but the impor-
tance ofa correct choice to the future of CKJF cannot be
overstated.

Third, Mike Ades is chairing a committee whosejob is to
review all aspects of CKJF operations with a goal ofidenti-
fying opportunities for improvement. This review starts with
the CKJF mission, proceeds through staffing, budgets.
committee responsibilities and performance. It is our goal to
complete this effort by early fall.

Fourth. a committee has taken on the task of reviewing
our bylaws for needed changes and additions.

Fifth, while Camp Shalom was not held this year, every-
one agrees that it has always been one ofthe most successful
activities sponsored by CKJF. Work has already com-
menced upon locating a site and developing a structure with
the target of resuming Camp in the summer of2000.

Finally, Kim Slaton recently resigned as our Program
Director. We will be filling this position in the near future
which will complete our staffing.

Future issues of the newspaper and special mailings will
bring you details about the items mentioned above. The goal
for the next two years is to develop a strong, more exciting
and responsive organization.

My home phone is 278-7078. Please call me ifyou have
ideas, concerns or whatever. Thanks!

The Lexington Cemetery is more than a pleasant

We are proud ofthis, and take seriously the
responsibility of maintaining its natural and artistic
beauty; that's why we insist on setting aside 60 per cent
of the cost ofa burial site for perpetual care Its one
part of our commitment to keeping The lexmgton

is today

winner David Trimble received honorary Doctorates from Ben-Gurion University of the
Negev. The ceremony took place on June 6th at the University’s campus in Beer-Sheva, Israel.

A native of Tunisia, Memmi has been called “the greatest Tunisian author writing in French” by
the Magazine Litteraire Paris, and Camus and Satre have praised his work. The New York
Times described his The Statue ofSalt and Agar as “two of the best works found in Europe
after this war” and The Jerusalem Post calls Memmi “one of the greatest Jewish thinkers.”

A researcher as well as an author, Memmi is an honorary professor of the University of Paris,
where he occupies a chair in Sociology of Culture. He is also Walker Aims Professor of the
University of Washington, and Member of the Council ofthe Institute of Nomadic Culture of
Princeton University.

Roberto Benigni’s Life is Beautiful was popularly acclaimed in Israel, and this was Benigni’s
first visit to the country since he and the film were awarded Oscars for Best Actor, Best Foreign
Film and Best Dramatic Score. Ben-Gurion University President Avishay Braverman said that
Benigni‘s Oscar winning film Life is Beautiful. “has helped deepen many people’s understanding
of the Holocaust.”

Speaking of David Trimble, Braverman stated, “As the University of Peace we are delighted
to welcome the Man of Peace.” Trimble helped bring about a peace agreement between Protes-
tants and Catholics within Northern Ireland and has expressed particular pleasure in the invitation
from BGU. The University is known for its ongoing cooperative projects with the Palestinians and
Israel’s neighbors in the areas of health. agriculture and preventing desertification. BGU has

initiated outreach programs to help improve the educational level of Israel‘s Bedouin community. D u p r e e C a t C r 1 mg I n C '

LEISURE CLUB UPDATE

By Ruth Maser

ho says all the Leisure Club does is eat? At the luncheon in May

there were over thirty “members,” including nearly a dozen New

Americans who came with Phil Matnick, their English teacher.
Annette Milch and I really look forward to having New Americans at the
Leisure Club. Everyone enjoyed the R&R (Rebittizen Kim Slaton and Rebittizen
Sandy Adland). And, of course, everyone ate from the nine-foot tuna sub
graciously prepared by Jeff Kaplan’s Submarine Shop.

The May Luncheon was a real family affair with Linda Ravvin receiving the
Machetunim Award for bringing her mom Cecile Flowman and Leon’ s mom
Pauline Ravvin. Sisters Jennie Wilson and Kiki Fredman came. Teddy Garber
brought her son Gary Garber. Annette brought her mom Estelle Steinberg, and I
brought my brother Albert Moser.

In June we went to Guiseppi’s where we had a private room. No program.
just lots of good food and lots ofgood friends. Bob Orbach read a patriotic
poem to herald the 4th of July. Annette showed pictures ofFred and Libby‘s
wedding. and I showed pictures ofmy #2 grandson Aaron Baum's Bar
Mitzvah. Then we said goodbye to Kim Slaton whom we have grown so fond
of. We will miss you, Kim.

No meeting in July, but on August 23 we will meet under the Ginkgo Tree at
Ashland. Henry Clay’s house on Richmond Road. And no meeting again in
September.

October will be a very special Leisure Club/ I Iadassah affair celebrating the
75th doll we will have made for the UK Children‘s I Iospital. Because of
Hadassah’s special relationship with Israel Bonds, we have invited Lori Bemard
from the Israeli Bond Office in Cincinnati to present a short program to let all
the Bubbis and Zaddies, moms and pops, and aunts and uncles know about the
brand new Israel Chai Bond. So put Thursday. October 21 at l 1.4: n m on
) our calendar. and plan on enjoying y otusell'while y ou eat some of Vi ayne
Mastennan‘s good cooking.

From now through October 1 5 there is a special King Tut exhibit in Cincinnati
