Yeshivas Erev Yehuda Kalman Grand Finale

The Simcha hall on Crown and Albany was swarming with hundreds of boys, this past Erev Rosh Chodesh Sivan, ready to receive their long awaited “sefarim vouchers” that they earned this year by attending Yeshivas Erev Yehuda Kalman.

Rabbi Zusy Sorkin, the dynamic coordinator of Yeshivas Erev, opened up the grand finale with words of praise for all of the boys that devoted every evening of the week to further themselves in Limud Hatorah – some reviewing their Gemara, others joining the new Mishnas Gavriel Project, still others doing their homework and some learning Mishnayos and Tanya Bal Peh.

Rabbi Sorkin then thanked all of the Mashgichim and older Bochurim for their great devotion to the boys that made this year such an outstanding one. He presented each of them with a beautiful gift as a token of appreciation.

The evening was also the climax of the Shabbos Project of 5771 where the boys reviewed all of the thirty nine Melachos as well as many practical applications of these Melachos. The following boys were the top winners of the year:

Mendy Ladayov, Levi Jacobson, Avrohom Nelkin, Menachem Mendel Rodal, Levi Shemtov, Levi Laufer, Tzvi Hirsh Marosov, Shimi Lishner, Mendel Slonim, Shneior Zalman Gansborg, Menachem Mendel Raitport, Chaim Shochat, Yakov Kanevsky, Shneior Zalman Lerrer, Mendel Wilenkin.

They were each rewarded with a set of sefarim.

Finally the evening was concluded presenting each of the boys that attended the Yeshivas Erev with a “sefarim voucher” to be cashed in at Merkos. The amount each boy received was based on his attendance and accomplishments during the past year.

Yeshivas Erev will continue this summer in the Agudah Shul on Crown Street in the evening from 7:00pm until 8:00pm.
