Joining hundreds of communities across the nation and around the world, the Rohr Chabad Center will host a Mega Challah Bake on Wednesday, November 20, at 7 pm, in the Mandela Room at Binghamton University. The event is co-sponsored by Beth David Sisterhood, Chabad Women’s League and Temple Israel. The event fee is $5 for community members. Reservations must be made in advance through this link.
“Hundreds of students and community members will come together to mix, knead and shape challahs,” said organizers of the event. “Each participant will make two challahs – one to keep and one to give to someone who would appreciate the gift.” Participants will have the chance to taste eight different flavors of challah, and each will receive a gift to take home along with their two challahs.
“The Mega Challah Bakes, held in cities large and small, bring communities together in a fun and meaningful celebration of Jewish heritage. For us, it’s an opportunity to unite our campus and local communities, with the support of campus and local Jewish organizations and a fantastic turnout of people enjoying this activity together,” explained Goldie Ohana, the event coordinator.
