As the Last Day of Chanukah Nears, Lights Grow More Intense
Cautiously conservative estimates put the number of Chabad’s Chanukah events and menorahs worldwide at 2,600. This number, based on events listed on Chabad websites and through random phone calls to Chabad representatives, is a vast undercounting. Factor in thousands of menorah-topped Chabad cars that whizzed by on city streets and the nightly lightings at Chabad’s 4,000 outposts worldwide, and the menorah count climbs higher than the calories in deep-fried latkes slathered with sour cream.
This Sunday at Bnos Menachem there will be a “Post Chanukkah Carnival”.
$4 admission, which includes pizza and a soda PLUS 2 tickets!!
