CCC Activities By JEANETTE WINKLER
Residents invited to catered dinner March 17 4th on 3rd at 5 ( formerly known as Fifth Friday at Five )
Last fall a decision was
WINKLER made to postpone the Fifth
Fridays because of the Event Center construction that was supposed to commence in January . Because of unforeseen delays we thought we would squeeze in a Fifth Friday before construction really begins . We chose the third Friday of the month , hence the name 4th on 3rd at 5 !
That being said , on Friday , March 17 , new and seasoned residents are invited to a catered dinner , with entertainment , and a chance to meet and socialize with your
|
Charbonneau neighbors and the board of directors . If you know someone who has recently moved to Charbonneau , let them know about this event . Perhaps you can invite them to sit at your table , make them feel welcome and introduce them to your neighbors and board members .
Tickets for the event are $ 10 per person and will go on sale at 9 a . m . on Wednesday , March 1 at the Activity Center . Only 150 tickets will be sold so don ’ t delay because this event has been known for selling out in one day . The Market Café will be catering the dinner but be sure to bring your beverage of your choice ( BYOB ).

“ The Mainstreaming of Antisemitism in America ”
A 2021 survey of American adults revealed that over one-third did not know what antisemitism is , and one out of six said they had never heard of the word . This at a time when we are seeing an alarming rise in antisemitic incidents and hate crimes in the United States . Education about antisemitism is therefore essential .
