May President’s message

Here I am, again!  I’m happy to be one of your Co-Presidents along with Marc North-Horowitz. Since I’ve retired from being a Staff Anesthesiologist at Kaiser, I seem to be busier than ever!  I guess one could call it my “second act.”

After our D’or v’ D’or celebration last month one of our newer members, Anne Levy Howson, commented that CBI feels like an extended family.  I agree.  My actual extended family is on the East Coast, so I come to CBI. I’m glad you come, too!

We have some new board members with new energy and new ideas.  We plan to expand our activities.  Our new school principal is re-organizing our religious school. We are starting a new group for planning our Programs and Events. What new programs would you like to see at CBI? Would you like more adult education, or perhaps a book club? A lecture series, perhaps on current events? Maybe an adult Hebrew class?  How about a Jewish music performance group?  Please join the conversation. Talk to me, Marc or another board member and let’s get it organized.

Looking forward to an exciting year!

“Dr. Jan” Leventhal, your CBI Co-president
