THE 2ND ANNUAL MENORAH COMPETITION

The Contra Costa JCC brought the community together for the 2nd Annual Menorah Competition on Monday, November 30, at Congregation B'nai Shalom. It was a great evening of families celebrating the second night of Hanukkah together. 

The menorahs created by the children with help from their parents were on display for all to see. Hazzan Bernstein and Eric Shone led the group in Chanukkah songs. There were delicious latkes made from scratch by the CBS Men's Club and jelly donuts, too. The judges made sure the children explained their menorahs and why they chose to make them. 

At the end of the night, the winning menorah was "Edible Science" by the Leitersdorf family, who shared pieces of it with anyone who wanted to have another yummy treat before heading home.
