Rabbi Micah Caplan z”l Award honors individuals or couples who have provided extraordinary contributions to Congregation Or Tzion, which can be as a financial supporter, an ambassador or advocate for the congregation in the community, an engaged volunteer or participant in congregational programs and activities, a leader in congregation initiatives or campaigns, or some combination thereof. The award is named after Rabbi Micah Caplan, z”l, who was an exemplary leader, both among our members and in the broader community, and who displayed an unparalleled commitment and dedication to the congregation. This award honors those who carry forward Rabbi Caplan’s z”l legacy through their outstanding support.
Sherman Minkoff z”l Service Award honors individuals or couples who have gone above and beyond in their volunteerism and service on behalf of the congregation. Congregation Or Tzion looks to all of its members to be active participants in congregational activities, but this award recognizes those who provide extraordinary time and effort. The award is named after Sherman Minkoff z”l, who stepped forward time and again to make sure that important functions of the congregation happened and worked smoothly. The recipient of this award embodies this same quality.
Marci & Matt Benjamin, Rachel & Jay Feitlinger, and Stacie & Aaron Wittenberg will be event co-chairs.
