A Lag Ba’omer bonfire and celebration took place for the 29th year on Empire Boulevard in the backyard of the Horowitz family. Together, Rabbi Sholom Horowitz and Rabbi Nachman Twerskei held their annual ‘Hadlokoh’ of a Bonfire in honor of Reb Shimon Bar Yochai.

Marking the beginning of Lag Baomer, a communal Bonfire will be lit on Kingston Avenue in front of the Wingate Highschool – 600 Kingston Avenue – starting at 9:45pm on Motzai Shabbos.

This morning my sister called to ask what she should do about the parade on Sunday. Her children were so excited about it but considering the recent bombings, she was reconsidering whether it was wise to go. Having two little children of my own I didn’t know what to say.
