Sports Day at Sinai
February 14, 1 - 3:30 PM
Sometimes when the heating bills continue to climb, homework piles up, the snow doesn’t stop and shoveling and salting seem to be your part time job you wonder if there will ever be sun again. Well, as in years past-we’re pretty certain the sun will shine once again. We will thaw out and we’ll start to look for things to do.
Well, with the Steeler season over, the Penguin season in full swing, the Panthers on the courts, and the Pirates looking to spring training, what better way to spend a day then talking SPORTS!
WoTS has been very busy during these winter days planning an exciting day for the Temple Sinai families and friends. We will be hosting our first fundraiser of the year “Sports Day at Sinai”. This event is sure to be a phenomenal hit with everyone in the family-grandparents, parents, sisters, brothers, cousins, aunts, uncles, babysitters…Ok, you get the point!
We have an exciting line up planned and more details are coming in daily!
Let’s play a little Jeopardy. Indulge me for a moment.
- “We Are Family” was the theme song for this team, their capital, and the fans.
- Sports writers in Pittsburgh have a lot to write about and need help in organizing all the championship information with this person’s help.
- Israel saw this Pittsburgher win a Silver medal in baseball during the 2009 Maccabiah games.
- Parrots, Beams, Penguins and Panthers-one or two of these mascots will be coming to Temple Sinai.
- The mayor having been instrumental in getting PNC Park and Heinz Field built in Pittsburgh.
- Ok, I love Jeopardy, but I can’t hold off any longer. The panel that is still being finalized will include:
- Pittsburgh Pirate Grant “Buck” Jackson pitcher from the days of Stargell’s Stars will sit on the panel.
- Jerry Micco, Assistant Managing Editor/Sports of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette
- Scott Rosen, a member of the American team for softball.
- This we will keep as a surprise until the big day!
- Sophie Masloff, former mayor of Pittsburgh
A few more surprises are on their way-details haven’t yet been ironed out.
The panel will be poised to answer all of your burning questions about sports in and around Pittsburgh.
Autograph seekers welcomed!
Lunch will be served and prizes award. No one will go home empty-handed! The prizes, the knowledge, the autographs, the pictures, the excitement-this is one event you will NOT want to miss.
All of this is being organized by the Women of Temple Sinai with the Master-of-Ceremonies being our very own sportswriter for MLB.com, Jonathan Mayo!
To make reservations or to get more information please contact Jodi Miller at jsmiller2girls@aol.com or Ruth Zober.
