Purim Carnival



The Purim Carnival is coming up in three weeks… but wait Purim is not until the middle of March. 

Have we completely confused you?  Purim this year is on Saturday night and Sunday, March 15th & 16th. We will have a great Purim program that Sunday morning complete with a performance by Circus Harmony! However, it does fall during spring break and many of our teenagers plan to be out of town. Since we pride ourselves on the fact that our teenagers plan and run almost our entire carnival, this year we decided to move the date of the carnival. But why Feb. 23rd? During the month of Adar it is important to increase our happiness and joy as we lead up to Purim. This year there are two months of Adar, Adar I and Adar II, due to the leap year. So on Feb. 23rd we will actually be having a Be Happy It’s Adar Carnival! There will be all your favorite Purim games, food, door prizes, music and even a raffle for a new car. 

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Be Happy It’s Adar Carnival on Feb. 23rd at 11:30am. 
(We will have regular MKLC classes from 9am-11:30am)
