HEFTY 
(Haverhill Emanu-El Federation of Temple Youth)

Time to catch up with HEFTY! 
 
We had a great year with HEFTY and recently held our annual end-of-year barbecue and old board/new board meeting in which the 2018–19 executive board was formally installed. The meeting discussed ideas for the coming year and also chose next year's theme, “Our Favorite Jews.” This theme refers to our role models as well as other Jews in the world that we admire. 
 
The new board officers are an all-star cast that includes Josh Shalek as President and NFTY Representative, Max Gofstein as Membership and Financial Vice President and NFTY Representative, and Tirzah Shalek as Programming Vice President and Recording Secretary. Our supervisor, Rachel Hanson, will unfortunately not be returning for the coming year, so HEFTY is looking for a new advisor. We'd all like to thank Rachel for her help this year and we are grateful she will still be teaching on Monday nights. We will be missing our outgoing board members, Ethan, Alex, and Seth, but we know we can make this coming year another great one.
