The Purim Carnival is geared towards B'nai Torah's Sunday School students. There are several carnival games, activities, crafts, and prizes. Favorites include the cake walk, where participants walk around in a circle on pictures placed on the floor, and whoever lands on a specific picture when the music stops wins a cupcake. Another favorite is when students get a chance to throw a whipped cream pie at the rabbi, after answering questions about Judaism correctly. The Purim Carnival is a successful yearly event. Adult and teen members of our congregation enjoy running the activities and watching the children have fun.

Some years, a silent auction is held along with the Purim Carnival. Come, join the fun, and bid on some terrific items!

  Every other year, Congregation B'nai Torah hosts a gala art auction, featuring the work of many internationally known artists.  At each auction, between 100-200 pieces of art ranging in price from $50 - $10,000 are auctioned off, with a portion of the proceeds benefitting the congregation.  This is a spectacular event not to be missed!

Congregation B’nai Torah’s Social and Fundraising Committees combine to do a yearly fun social event at Sweet Tomatoes Restaurant. This event is held annually on Martin Luther King Holiday making it convenient for most families to attend. While this is a fundraiser giving the congregation 20% of returns, it is mostly a fun time for all. We start at 5:30 p.m. and go until closing at 8:00 p.m. Families come and go as needed. However, many families just stay and visit with members they see on occasion. It is truly a great way to have fun!
