Camp Ramah-goers and fellow TC Jewfolks rejoice! Jon Adam Ross (known mostly as JAR), a performance and visual artist, a playwright, and Rosh Mercaz at the previously mentioned camp, will be returning to our neck of the woods presenting shared stories of the TC Jewish community as well as talking about what direction we’re going. Thank goodness! I thought we were dealing with the return of Jar Jar Binks! Phew!

Ok. This time, it’s personal. Full disclosure: I personally know Sheyna Galyan. She is a heck of a sweet lady! The fact that she’s had a novel published, let alone a second one is incredibly awesome!
