Every Jewish person was at Har Sinai when the Torah was received — men and women of every age, tiny children and even the Neshamos of future generations.
The Rebbe has always reminded us to celebrate and relive that historic unity each Shavuot by bringing every member of the family, from tiny infants up, to hear the Aseres Hadibros read in Shul.
CrownHeights.info has compiled a list of times and Shul locations around Crown Heights that are reading the Aseres Hadibros for your convenience.
Alternate side parking (street cleaning) regulations will be suspended on Wednesday and Thursday, May 19-20 for Shavuos.
All other regulations, including parking meters, remain in effect.

Well that’s exactly what these seventh graders learned on their trip today; Rebbi appreciates their achievements. The boys enjoyed hours of fun with a very intense miniature-golf competition, frightening batting cages and a ride on a superb go-kart raceway!
