The Jewish Federation of Greater Binghamton will hold a pre-Campaign event featuring basketball player Tamir Goodman on Sunday, August 17, at 7 pm, at the Jewish Community Center, 500 Clubhouse Rd., Vestal. Goodman was the first Jewish athlete to play Division I college and professional basketball while wearing a yarmulke and observing Shabbat.
“We are so lucky to host Tamir as our speaker for this special Federation event,” said Shelley Hubal, executive director of the Federation. “Tamir has an inspirational story of faith and commitment. We are excited to engage him as our early Campaign speaker. Join us for what is sure to be a meaningful event.”
More information about the event and an interview of Goodman will appear in a future edition of The Reporter.
