Many parents came up to celebrate over UAlbany’s Homecoming Weekend earlier this Fall over Columbus Day Weekend, but as not all parents were able to come that weekend, and some parents expressed interest in an alternate weekend, we’re inviting interested parents to come up for this alternate weekend on November 13-15 (actually the same dates as we did the alternate weekend last year!)
All meals and prayer services will be at Shabbos House, with a big dessert buffet after dinner on Friday Night, a Kiddush Club Sat morning before Torah reading, and a special Game Night activities on Saturday Night, as well as whatever you’d like to do with your son or daughter in Albany. Please check back soon for an updated and more detailed schedule.
See this page for nearby hotels and motels (Western Ave hotels are closer to Shabbos House).
Please RSVP signup using this Google Form so we can be better prepared:
