Chabad Austin 2013 Inaugurates New Playgound at Hebrew Preparatory School Bais Menachem.

Event No. 4 – Chabad's Austin Hebrew Preparatory School Bais Menachem (HPSBM) inaugurates its new outdoor playground with a Chanukah celebration.

Parents, HPSBM students and the entire community were all invited to this festive Chanukah show.


Parents and their children took advantage of the sunny day to enjoy the Chanukah show, carnival games, "moon walk" Sufgayot, latkes (סופגאַניאָט און לאַטקעס), cookie decorating and lighting of the Menorah.







A real holiday feeling prevailed with cast members mingling with guests.


The audience assembled as the show was about to begin.


Rabbi Yosef Levertov welcomes invited guests and emphasized the importance of passing on love of Jewish tradition (הענאָטש) to the next generation.



Rebbetzin Rochel Levertov introduces the talented young performers. These youngsters learn to sing in English, Hebrew and as shown below Spanish. She also acknowledged and thanked Chana Levertov for all the hard work in writing, producing and directing the Chanukah play.
