SHABBATON 2025 SURVEY

DC Minyan is exploring the possibility of holding its 2025 out-of-town Shabbaton on the weekend of March 14–16. Because Purim begins on the evening of March 13, immediately preceding this weekend, we would like to gauge the community’s interest and availability for the Shabbaton on these dates.

Please fill out this survey by Sunday, November 24 to help us determine whether or not to move forward with our plans for an out-of-town event. Note that due to limited venue availability, this is the only weekend being considered for this year’s Shabbaton.

COMMUNITY NEWS

WELCOME TO OUR NEW PROGRAMMING CHAIR!

The DC Minyan Board of Directors is excited to announce the appointment of Abigail Romirowsky as the new Programming Committee Chairperson. Abigail will serve the remainder of Hadar Halivni’s term, which ends March 2026. You can reach Abigail at programming@dcminyan.org and read more about her below:

Abigail Romirowsky grew up in Providence, Rhode Island, but has lived all of her adult life in the DMV as a graduate of the University of Maryland for both undergrad and grad school. DC Minyan has been her davening and Jewish community home since 2007, and she has served in an eclectic variety of volunteer roles over the years related to davening, programs for kids and parents, and volunteer organizing. She also remains the co-chair of the Bereavement Subcommittee, which she co-founded in 2017. She works as a private practice psychologist and spends her free time reading memoirs or fiction and dreaming about the next time she can escape to the beach. She lives in Adams Morgan with her husband, Shai (whom she met in their Jewish a capella group!), and three kids, Ilan (9), Ezra, (5), and Kira (5).
