New Baseball Stadium Coming to Town
By Steve Lieberman, The Journal NewsRAMAPO — Minor league baseball is coming to Rockland County.
Opening day is scheduled for June 1, 2011. A singer already has been chosen to sing "The Star Spangled Banner." Ticket prices have been set.
Right now, the site is 65 acres of woodlands, with renderings displaying a 3,500-seat stadium off Firemen's Memorial Drive, near Route 45 in Ramapo.
"What we will have is a family-oriented experience with the American pastime of baseball," Ramapo Supervisor Christopher St. Lawrence said during a preview of the stadium with the designers on Thursday.
Aside from 50 professional baseball games from June to Labor Day , officials said, the stadium can provide an economic boost to the county and create more than 100 construction jobs through union labor, about 25 full-time jobs and up to 75 part-time jobs.
"Minor league baseball will make Rockland a destination point," St. Lawrence said.
Known as "Project Grand Slam ," the stadium will cost an estimated $25.5 million — $17.5 million for the stadium and the $8 million cost for last year's purchase of 67 acres. The stadium and parking will sit on 25 acres.
There will be a $1.295 million fee to become an expansion team in 2011 with the Canadian American Association Professional Baseball league, known as CanAm.
Tickets are projected at $12 for the field seats and $7 for the second tier, officials said.
Ramapo will bond the cost of the stadium, which would be located off Palisades Interstate Parkway Exit 12, over 30 years.

Purim at Hillel of RCC
Purim at the the Center for Jewish Life at Hillel at RCC was a big success. It began with an arts and crafts event, mask making, on Taanis Esther which took place at RCC.
On Purim night the venue was Shelli's Two Pizza Shop where a large and spirited crowd gathered to hear the Megillah which was lained beautifully by Yechiel Rapoport. The crowd included some who were fulfilling the mitzvah for the first time in their lives and many who would not have heard it otherwise.
The laining was followed by an entertaining Purim rap, purim puppet show, pinata smashing and a grand costume contest!

Some Important Points that May be Overlooked on Purim
By Rabbi Simcha Werner
1. The Rebbe has emphasized that children less than Bar and Bas Mitzvah should give Misheloach Manos and Matonos L’evyonim. This means each boy and girl even less than Bar and Bas Mitzva should give Tzedaka to two poor people on Purim. It is not enough to put the money into a Pushka or give it to a Yeshiva. If they will not come in contact with a poor person, they should give the money to you to distribute.
2. Single people in your household including children should give Misheloach Manos on their own.
3. Women and girls are also Mechuyiv to do Matonos L’evyonim with their own money and give Misheloach Manos on their own.
4. If the women in your household will not come in contact with poor people, they may give it to their father/husband to distribute or they could also give it to the Lubavitch Fund, through Reb Mordechai Litzman at his home, 58 W. Maple Avenue or at the Tzemach Tzedek Shul, or give it to Kupath Ezrah through Yossi Lichtenstein, 15 Bedford Court, Meir Steinhauser, 19 Algonquin Circle, or Rabbi S.F. Mashinsky, 31 Briarcliff Road.
5. If you came to Shul and forgot to take money from your wife or your sons and daughters over the age of six or seven, you may have the one who is collecting the money for the poor people acquire it for their behalf. This will make it their money, and he will give it on their behalf. It is appropriate that the wife and family members be notified of the Tzedakah given on their behalf before the money is distributed to the poor people.
6. THE HATZOLOH OF PURIM WAS IN THE Z’CHUS OF OUR CHILDREN, THEREFORE THE MITZVOS THEY DO ARE VERY IMPORTANT.
Wishing you and your family an enjoyable and inspiring Purim!
If you have any questions please call Rabbi Werner at 845-356-3850 or 845-641-4475.

Gemara Berurah Director Visits Cheder Chabad
This past Tuesday the director of the Gemarah Berurah program, Rabbi Fachler, visited Cheder Chabad and spent some time observing the classes to monitor the progress of the Gemarah Berurah program, how it is being implemented in the classrooms and how the talmidim are using it in the computer lab. He then met individually with the Rebbis. Rabbi Fachler then had a workshop with the Rebbeim of grades 3 through 8 where he introduced the new revamped Gemarah Berurah program that also includes a new component, called Mishna Berurah. This is a program similar to the Gemarah Berurah which will be used for Mishnayos starting from grade 3.
Rabbi Fachler was very impressed with what we have accomplished so far and with the professionalism and the dedication of the Rebbeim. Rabbi Fachler also noted that we are one of the only schools in the world that use Gemara Berurah for all classes that teach Gemarah. Rabbi Fachler will be scheduling several other visits throughout the school year.
The Gemarah Berurah is subsidized by the Avi Chai Foundation and Mr. and Mrs. Dror Frommer.
