BEGIN:VCALENDAR PRODID;X-RICAL-TZSOURCE=TZINFO:-//com.denhaven2/NONSGML ri_cal gem//EN CALSCALE:GREGORIAN VERSION:2.0 BEGIN:VEVENT DESCRIPTION:Do you have an interest in Jewish history? Perhaps you wonder where the ancient Hebrews came from? Or how Jews ended up in Ethiopia? Or when they came to America?\nIf you do\, this class\, which I'll be of fering at my home in University Park\, might be just what you're looking for. I'm going to cover Jewish history from its beginnings through the present day\, so the term "crash course" is appropriate. The approach wi ll be academic\, not religious. It'll run for 6 sessions\, beginning May 9 and continuing on the following Wednesdays through June 13. Class tim e will be from 7:30 p.m. to 8:45 p.m.\nFolks are welcome to come to soci alize at 7:00. If you're interested but don't want to leave your childre n home alone to do homework\, we'll have space where they can sit and wo rk quietly. There will be a modest enrollment fee for the classes - $5 p er session\, $25 for the entire class. The class is offered in cooperati on with DC-based Cong. Bet Mishpachah (I'm rabbi emeritus) as a service to members who live in the Maryland suburbs. Fees of congregants will be covered by the congregation. It's also offered in cooperation with the Jewish Study Center of Washington as an experiment in home-based educati on.\nFor more information\, please contact me at \;rabbibobs@aol.com  \;or by phone at \;301-864-1240. To help with planning\, please let me know whether you will join us for some/all of the classes by May 6th.  \; URL:http://collegepark.patch.com/events/crash-course-in-jewish-history SUMMARY:"\;Crash Course"\; in Jewish History LOCATION:Clagett Road\, University Park\, Md 20737 : Clagett Road\, Unive rsity Park\, Md END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
