As we are entering our final lap for getting kids signed up please note the following important points.
- Passed years have shown that to get someone to really sign up they need to be contacted at leased two or three times. so, even if parents told you they will do it chances are you need to follow up and make sure they did. please see the list mentioned above.
- It is very important to try to get kids to bring friends and family. if a kid is coming call back and tell them about the raffle for referring a friend. lets get the big numbers.
- Remember that in addition to the current lists there are also lists of kids who were in released time in passed years and kids who were at the parade in passed years.
- keep calling we only have until Wednesday night to get kids signed up.

Dear Parents
On behalf of the ‘The Lag Ba’omer Parade Committee’, we are delighted to
invite you to the annual Grand Lag Ba’omer Parade and Fair.
The parade is one of Jewish unity and pride, and has been initiated by the Lubavitcher
Rebbe since the 1950s. The program consists of a concert with famous jewish a
parade with tens of floats depicting many Jewish themes, a fair with close to
30 attractions for all ages, and tens of thousands of Jewish children uniting
as one in honor of the holiday of Lag Ba’omer.
Lag Ba’omer this year is on Sunday, May 18. The program is scheduled to
start at 10:00 AM.
This year, the Released Time program of Greater New York is waiving the
nominal cost of the event for all those in the released time group. A special
section will be set aside for the released time children.
To ensure seating room and a great parade t-shirt, registration is
necessary. Please visit JewishHour.org. to sign up.
Transportation will be arranged for pick up and drop off from local public
schools. Please call for more info. (Transportation is not available for
schools in Manhattan.)

Moshiach!
Looking forward
to greeting you by the parade,
The Relesed time
program.
