Shavuot Service and Picnic Lunch - June 12, 2016
Shavuot (or Feast of Weeks in English) commemorates the anniversary of the day God gave the Torah to the entire nation of Israel assembled at Mount Sinai. This year, Yavneh will 'receive' the Torah in an open-air service held at Umstead State Park, followed by a community picnic lunch.
Join us at 1:00 am on Sunday, June 12th at Umstead State Park. We have reserved picnic shelter #2 in the Reedy Creek section of the park (Harrison Avenue entrance - see map/directions here). Family and dogs invited! Handicapped accessible. Bring your own lunch, or pre-order box lunches from La Farm Bakery below. Yavneh will supply the drinks!
If you are ordering lunch and/or making an optional donation, you do not need to RSVP separately. If you are bringing your own lunch, and do not wish to make a donation, please RSVP here for planning purposes.
PLEASE NOTE: The cutoff for ordering box lunches is 8:00 pm, Tuesday, June 7th.
