A Bar Mitzvah Theme Celebrating A Major Sports Fan

A Bar Mitzvah Theme Celebrating A Major Sports Fan

The Strauss family from Oceanside, New York, celebrated son Benjamin’s Bar Mitzvah on May 14, 2016, at Congregation B’nai Sholom-Beth David in Rockville Centre, New York, followed by a New York Jets, Yankees, Islanders themed sports party at Carlyle at the Omni — a 60’s retro-themed venue in Uniondale, New York.

Ben had a great tagline: …Ben There Done That.

Pictured L-R: Brother Joshua, Bar Mitzvah boy Benjamin, Mom Amy and Dad Adam.

The photographer was Gil of Jo Art Photographers and the rest of the information is listed at the end of the Spotlight.

Bar Mitzvah Project

 

Ben did fundraising with his Hebrew school and visited the local nursing home, every Sunday. He played games with the elderly patients, talked to them and celebrated the holidays with them. With Hebrew school, he made dog bones for the local animal shelters.

 

Some Advice from Mom Amy
