Let the Games Begin...<br />
The <strong>JCC</strong> Maccabi Games ® are coming to Philadelphia and the <strong>Kaiserman</strong> <strong>JCC</strong> for 2011!<br />
It’s time for you to be part of the home team!<br />
The <strong>Kaiserman</strong> <strong>JCC</strong> will be the official host of the 2011 <strong>JCC</strong> Maccabi<br />
Games ® , August 14-19, 2011. The <strong>JCC</strong> Maccabi Games ® are an<br />
international sporting event for Jewish athletes ages 13-16. Held every<br />
summer in North America, thousands of Jewish teenagers compete in<br />
sports competitions, participate in community service projects, have fun<br />
at the evening social events and make friends that will last a lifetime.<br />
The entire community will have a role to play.<br />
Do not miss out on being part of the home team!<br />
Host Families: Welcoming guests is an important concept in Judaism. Abraham and Sarah were known for their<br />
hospitality and set the standard for how to treat guests in homes. As a <strong>JCC</strong> Maccabi Games ® host family, you are<br />
helping to carry on the tradition. During these Games, your home becomes a home-away-from-home for our<br />
visiting athletes. 500 host families are needed to house the 1000 visiting athletes from across the US, Canada and<br />
abroad. By welcoming these young <strong>JCC</strong> Maccabi athletes into your home, you and your family will share the true<br />
experience of the Philadelphia 2011 <strong>JCC</strong> Maccabi Games ® .<br />
Volunteer: As a volunteer, you can experience the excitement of the Opening Ceremonies, four incredible days<br />
of athletic competition, help serving lunches, supervising evening social activities, helping us prepare for athlete<br />
arrivals or serving on a planning committee. No matter what job you do, big or small, you will help create memories<br />
that will last a lifetime.<br />
Sponsorship: You have the unique opportunity to share in the success of the 2011 <strong>JCC</strong> Maccabi Games by becoming<br />
a sponsor. Our goal is to raise $1.5 Million in funds and products to make the Games a reality in our community.<br />
Make your pledge today.<br />
Calling all Athletes: Jewish athletes are invited to try-out for Team Philly. 250 local teenagers will make up the<br />
local delegation of athletes. Sports include: basketball, soccer, baseball, girls lacrosse, tennis, swimming, dance, and<br />
bowling. Try-outs will start in January.<br />

Become a Sponsor and Enjoy<br />
Recognition & Promotion<br />
We c a n a l i g n yo u r<br />
b u s i n e s s w i t h o u r<br />
members in a number<br />
of ways. We service over<br />
4,500 individuals through<br />
numerous programs and<br />
vehicles that cater to a<br />
variety of age groups and<br />
interests. Whether your<br />
goal is to support a specific <strong>JCC</strong> event, or<br />
develop an ongoing relationship with all or<br />
part of our membership, we can structure a<br />
strategy that will satisfy your philanthropic<br />
and marketing goals. In-kind donations of<br />
goods and services are also welcome and<br />
are recognized at the sponsorship level<br />
commensurate to its cash value.<br />
Brick Paver<br />
We will install a brick<br />
paver on our walkway<br />
engraved with your<br />
personal message to<br />
commemorate a special<br />
occasion, celebration or memory of a loved<br />
one. Single size bricks are $75; double size<br />
bricks are $150. Add your logo or a stock<br />
image for an additional $10.<br />
Tribute Cards<br />
A tribute card, beautifully<br />
designed by Philadelphia<br />
artist Mordechai Rosenstein,<br />
is a thoughtful, flexible way<br />
to make a gift to the <strong>JCC</strong><br />
in honor of any number of<br />
special occasions, including<br />
B’nai Mitzvah, birthdays and<br />
anniversaries. They are also<br />
appropriate for memorials. A<br />
minimum gift of $10 per card is requested.<br />
Legacy Gifts<br />
Ensuring a legacy is a personal pledge of faith<br />
– a commitment to keep the doors of the <strong>JCC</strong><br />
open for future generations. While outright<br />
gifts such as cash and stock are vital to our<br />
success, donors can also support the <strong>JCC</strong><br />
by making a planned gift – leaving a legacy.<br />
Immediate benefits to you might include<br />
tax savings, additional income, and the<br />
satisfaction of knowing that your personal<br />
charitable goals will be met.<br />
Designated Gifts &<br />
Naming Opportunities<br />
Your gift may be designated to benefit a<br />
specific program or area within the <strong>JCC</strong>.<br />
This enables you to target your gift to<br />
programs or projects that are important to<br />
you or to a loved one, as a gift in-memory<br />
or in-honor. Some areas you might be<br />
interested in targeting include our aquatics<br />
pavilion, gymnasium, group fitness room or<br />
areas within the Robert J. Wilf Preschool &<br />
Kindergarten.<br />
Employer Matched Donations<br />
As a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization,<br />
<strong>Kaiserman</strong> <strong>JCC</strong> is eligible to receive employer<br />
matched donations. We will happily<br />
acknowledge both you and your employer<br />
for donations made through your company’s<br />
matching program. Check to see if your<br />
employer participates!<br />
Volunteer<br />
There is always something happening at the<br />
<strong>JCC</strong> and opportunity to help! Individuals<br />
and groups can serve on a committee, help<br />
out with special events, beautify our campus<br />
and more! Let us match your interest to a<br />
project that will make a real difference in<br />
our community.<br />

Our Team <strong>Program</strong> is designed to prepare gymnasts for USAG competitions.<br />
Gymnasts first learn the necessary skills, dance and acrobatics on the precompetitive<br />
levels. Building on these skills they then learn the competitive<br />
routines they will perform at meets. Gymnasts have the opportunity to compete<br />
with gymnasts from other clubs in the region. Within the framework of positive<br />
reinforcement and encouragement, our coaches provide an opportunity for<br />
gymnasts to grow in skill level and confidence, creating a positive experience<br />
that will add to their physical and social development. Extended hours offer<br />
team members time for additional practice on gymnastics skills. Time is also<br />
spent on strength conditioning, endurance, and flexibility, necessary for the<br />
proficiency of skills. Participation on a team is by invitation or scheduled tryout<br />
with our Gymnastics Director, Valencia Chang. For USAG levels 2 to Advanced<br />
Prep Optional. Call 610-896-7770 x 106 or e-mail gymnastics@phillyjcc.com<br />

Fall/Winter 2010-2011 - 25
Holiday Celebrations and Closings<br />
A list of when and why we are closed.<br />
Shabbat: The Jewish day of rest begins at<br />
sundown on Friday evening and ends at<br />
twilight on Saturday evening. It is a time to<br />
enjoy spiritual contemplation, the company of<br />
family members, nature and relaxation. It is<br />
an opportunity to feel renewed and ready for<br />
the coming week.<br />
Rosh Hashanah: The Jewish New Year<br />
begins the 10-day period known as the High<br />
Holidays, the Days of Awe. We use this time<br />
to think about the past year and resolve to<br />
improve what needs improvement in the<br />
coming year. The blowing of the shofar<br />
(ram’s horn) serves as a wake-up call to begin<br />
the process.<br />
Yom Kippur: The Day of Atonement<br />
occurs on the 10th (last) day of the High<br />
Holidays. It is a day of fasting, prayer, inner<br />
contemplation and a collective confession of<br />
sins. It is also a day of optimism, full of the<br />
promise of forgiveness and improvement of<br />
our behavior in the coming year.<br />
Sukkot: Preparations for Sukkot begin<br />
right after Yom Kippur with the building<br />
of the sukkah, a temporary booth made<br />
of branches of wood. This harvest holiday<br />
emphasizes the values of hospitality, the<br />
rewards of work and our trust in G-d. It<br />
reminds us of the period of time the Jews<br />
wandered in the desert after leaving Egypt.<br />
Shemini Atzeret: The eighth day of Sukkot,<br />
a day of solemn assembly, is a holiday<br />
on which prayers for rain are recited. A<br />
memorial service is also held.<br />
Simchat Torah: Simchat Torah is associated<br />
with Sukkot, but is an independent, joyous<br />
holiday. On Simchat Torah, the cycle of<br />
reading from the Torah ends and begins<br />
again. In every synagogue, the Torah scrolls<br />
are taken out and carried around<br />
in processions.<br />
Fall/Winter 2010-2011 - 26<br />
Chanukah: Chanukah is the eight-day<br />
Festival of Lights. It recalls the fight of<br />
the Maccabees for religious freedom. We<br />
light the menorah for eight nights to<br />
commemorate the victory over the Grecco-<br />
Syrians and rededication of the Temple.<br />
Purim: Literally “lots,” Purim is a holiday<br />
that comes in the middle of the Hebrew<br />
month of Adar. On Purim, we read the Scroll<br />
of Esther (Megillat Esther, often referred<br />
to as the Megillah), which tells the story of<br />
how the intervention of Queen Esther and<br />
Mordechai saved the Jewish communities<br />
of ancient Persia from certain annihilation.<br />
We celebrate this rescue with high-spirited<br />
revelry, including wearing costumes of the<br />
main characters in the Megillah, exchanging<br />
gifts of food, giving charity (Tzedakah) to<br />
those in need, and baking and eating Purim<br />
pastries called Hamantaschen. We attend<br />
Purim carnivals where the whole family can<br />
enjoy this holiday together.<br />
Passover: The Passover Seder recreates the<br />
story of the Jews’ exodus from Egypt. Many<br />
customs and rituals are associated with<br />
Passover. The Haggadah is used to tell the<br />
story of the exodus, everyone drinks four<br />
cups of wine, and a festive meal follows the<br />
Seder. Leavened bread and food products<br />
made with flour are prohibited.<br />
Shavuot: Shavuot is a Hebrew word meaning<br />
“weeks” and refers to the Jewish festival<br />
marking the giving of the Torah at Mount<br />
Sinai. Shavuot, like so many other Jewish<br />
holidays began as an ancient agricultural<br />
festival, marking the end of the spring barley<br />
harvest and the beginning of the summer<br />
wheat harvest. Shavuot was distinguished<br />
in ancient times by bringing crop offerings<br />
to the Temple in Jerusalem.<br />
