WHO?
We’re the Renaissance Group, an active, adventurous, fun-loving group of Temple Shalom members who are 50-or-more years old.  We’re a youthful “seniors” group, delighted to be free at this stage in our lives to play, to explore, to learn, to socialize, to establish new friendships.  Some of us are retired; others work full time.  Many of our members are active in various Temple Shalom committees (Sisterhood, Brotherhood, etc.); others are not.

HOW?
Under the creative leadership of Shirley Bauer, we’ve just entered our sixth year.  We schedule about a dozen events for the season (August -June).  These include an exceptional range of outings - entertaining, educational, exhilarating.

WHERE HAVE WE BEEN?
Variety is the spice of our agenda.  We’ve enjoyed such wide ranging activities as:
•        A boat ride up the Hudson River to the Rockefeller estate (box lunches included)
•        The Jewish Museum in Manhattan, Grounds for Sculpture in NJ
•        Dinner and a show
•        Weekend trips to Baltimore's Inner Harbor, Philadelphia and this years overnight to Rhinebeck for the famous antique airshow
•        Botanical Gardens and Zoo in New York
•        Waterloo Village
•        Pontoon boating on the Hackensack river
•        Dinner and Havdallah services at members’ homes
Many, many, many more

WHERE ARE WE GOING?
For this year, our plans include:
•         A baseball game at the Yogi Berra Stadium in Montclair State University
