Hanukkah Party and Gift Swap
This celebration took place on the first night of Hanukkah.  Michael Hackmeyer helped Dr. Efron with the reading of the Hanukkah story and lighting of the menorah.  The group then shared favorite memories of how they celebrated Hanukkah with their families.  The party would not have been complete without latkes made under the direction of Joe Sances. (of course, there was applesauce and sour cream as an accompaniment!) Bryan then led the group in a game of dreidel.  He brought along his own “special dreidel” (very suspicious).  Cathy Siegal showed off her spinning skills but  Michael Hackmeyer and Arnold Feigenson emerged as the big winners.
