Participate in a Conversation About the Future of Our Shul
913-647-7293
On the evening of July 1st, we will hold our Congregational Annual Meeting. Traditionally this is time to elect our Board of Directors. In addi-tion to the election, we wanted to take the opportunity to update the congre-gation on several important issues and to address congregants’ questions. By the time of our meeting we are hopeful that we will have closed on the sale of the Wornall Campus. It is
an ideal time to update the congrega-tion on the shul's financial position. As a continuation of our strategic planning process, Gina Kaiser has been chairing a committee studying the future of our shul's facilities. Gina will report on the committee's progress. We also have been studying various alternative dues structures that are being considered and implemented at our sister Conservative synagogues

A Jewish Summer – More Than Just Camp Our goal at Congregation Beth Shalom – for young people and adults -- is to create literate Jews who carry with them the joy of being Jew-ish and the self-confidence to make their own Jewish choices wherever they are. So, I am giving all of our con-gregants homework for the summer. “What??!!!” you ask, “Homework!!??” What kind of terrible rabbi gives homework – and on summer vacation no less? Yes. Here is every congregant’s homework assignment: do something Jewish over the summer – preferably away from home – and share it in shul when you get back. My prefer-ence is that if you are traveling this summer at all, take one Friday night
or Saturday morning and seek out a synagogue for Shabbat services. But it could be ANYTHING – making Havdalah by a beach, having a Shab-bat dinner barbecue in the back yard with friends, seeking out kosher food on a family road trip, working on a family tzedakah project before school begins in the Fall. If there is one message that this assignment will teach, it is this: you are not only Jewish during the school year and when you are at Beth Shalom – you are always Jewish, and you can always make Jewish choices. This is one of the fundamen-tal lessons of our Jewish learning, and ironically, it is best taught when school is not in session. It can’t hap-pen in our Polsky Religious School, at
our Rose Family pre-school, at the HBHA or in our adult educa-tion classes – it can only happen “as you walk along the way” as we read in the Shema. I hope that everyone has a meaningful and joyful summer vaca-tion, and I look forward to seeing you at synagogue over the summer and in the fall.Shalom,

Because CBS no longer has two boards to display Yahrtzeit tab-lets, we have a second set of tablets no longer in use. If you would like your loved ones’ extra tablets, call the synagogue any time during regular business hours in June, and we will be happy to give you the tablet(s). We cannot mail these. If you cannot come in, contact a friend to pick them up for you or contact Beth Shalom. We can hold your tablets for you. On June 30, all unclaimed tablets will be recycled.

Editorial Comments
Comments by Bev Newman, Scroll Editor
The theme for Women’s League for Conservative Judaism for the coming year is "Mishpachah, the Modern Jewish Family." In my opinion, this theme can be applied to our entire Congregation. Many of us are part of multi-generation families, while others of us are relative new-comers or people with no prior ties to CBS. Together all of us make up a family—a congregational family. A congregational family can operate in the same manner as a traditional fam-ily: being there for each other, wor-shiping together, working together, playing together and helping each other. We need to reach out to each other to become Mishpachah.

Did you know that camp at CBS this summer is going to be a blast? All camp activities will revolve around the themes of Sun, Stars, Moon and Planets. Some of the fun goings-on will be a Bounce to the Moon Bounce House, 4th of July Bike Parade and a trip to the moon to learn about the planets. Campers will also work in the RFECEC garden
and enjoy eating the veggies they have planted. A special event will be a concert featuring “The Sugar Free All-stars”, a great group from Oklahoma, that provides fun and funky music for families. There is still time to sign up for a fun summer at camp. Contact Judy Jacks Berman for more informa-tion at 913-647-7287.

Congregation Beth Shalom has been your spiritual home for many years. You and your family have celebrated, prayed, learned and supported one another in this home. By making a planned gift you can create a permanent endowment to support our synagogue well into the future. Options include:
What Will Your Legacy Be?
Gifts from Qualified Retirement Plans By naming CBS as a death beneficiary, no taxes will be paid and the full amount of your gift will benefit the synagogue. If you are over 70 ½, you can make a direct distribution from your retirement account to the synagogue, and it will count as a part of your Required Minimum Distribution.
For more information on how you can support Beth Shalom for generations to come, please contact Harold Kaseff at [email protected] or (913)-859-0530.
Life Insurance Policies By naming CBS the owner and/or beneficiary of a life insurance policy you can enjoy significant tax benefits during your lifetime. Upon your death a substantial gift will be made to CBS.
Life Income Plans Through a Charitable Gift Annuity or Charitable Remainder Trust, you can make a dona-tion that will pay your or someone else’s income for life or a term of years. Upon the death of the income recipient, the balance will go to CBS.
Outright Gifts Give cash, stock, real estate or other assets today.
Charitable Bequests Make a future gift through your will or trust, and still enjoy your assets today.

On Saturday, May 4, CBS rec-ognized all the past and current mem-bers of the Kiddush Corps for their service to our congregants for the past ten years. The current Kiddush Corps began April 24, 2003, under the administration of Jeanette Wishna, z"l, and led by Gertie Epstein and Rhea Salasche. With the move to our current location at 142nd and Lamar, Barbara M. Katz assumed the leader-
ship role. At the May 4th Kiddush luncheon, the husbands of the cur-rent members of the Kiddush Corps, not only sponsored the event, but prepared all the food and desserts. The sponsors included Erwin Abrams, Larry Kalender, Harold Kaseff, Michael Katz, Ben Rubin and Neal Singer. Rabbi David Glickman is shown assisting Harold Kaseff on Friday in preparing the lox trays.
Kiddush Corps Celebrated
