Amazon Pool Party
Sunday, August 18
5:30 to 7:30 pm
It’s an event in which our diverse community (both TBI members and non-members) can come together, mingle, and get to know each other in a fun environment. We have rented the site for August 18th, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm, meaning that we will have the entire place to ourselves! Attendees can bring their own picnic dinners and TBI will supply cold treats. There is a variety of activities to appeal to swimmers and non-swimmers of all ages: picnic areas for eating and schmoozing, wifi, hot tub/spa, swimming pool, sand play, and spray play. Let us know you’re attending so we know how many treats to buy.
This event is generously sponsored by Temple Beth Israel, TBI Sisterhood, PJ Library, TBI Brotherhood, Jewish Federation of Lane County, and the law firm of Shlesinger & deVilleneuve.
