LAS VEGAS, NV — Jewish students at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas were making final preparations Friday for the school’s first-ever mega Shabbat event.
According to freshman Jackie Honig, organizers of the Shabbat100 dinner sponsored by the Chabad-Lubavitch Jewish Student Center along with Hillel and the Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity are expecting about 80 people to attend.
“It’s going really well,” she said on Thursday in the midst of handing out flyers. “We’ve been advertising and talking about it a ton.”
Rabbi Tzvi Bronchtain, who came to Las Vegas with wife Rivkah Bronchtain in 2005 to head up the new Chabad House at UNLV, said that getting almost 100 Jewish students together for dinner at a commuter college is a feat in and of itself. For many, he added, it will be their first time experiencing a real Shabbat meal.
