Event Details
Lobbying
Clinic
NCJW UT, in January, participates with the Community Action
Partnership (CAP) in its Democracy Day on the Hill. That day, we
hear from speakers, learn how to lobby, eat lunch with legislators
and, with docents, tour the Capitol. While we lunch, participants
talk with legislators about issues and upcoming bills consistent
with NCJW principles. |
NCJW Day on Capitol Hill Page
NCJW UT participates with CORC (Coalition of Religious Communities)
in a lobbying day at the Capitol. |
Ski Day
A
favorite social event, join fellow members on the slopes for a fun
day.

Passover Seder
Each
year, our local NCJW section partners with the Jewish Community Center
to enable local seniors to connect with their Jewish roots and enjoy
Passover foods and traditions.

Race
for the Cure
NCJW
Utah Section partners with the Susan
G. Komen Foundation in SLC to raise awareness and money for breast
cancer research. Usually, we have an event at Sugarhouse Park around
Mother's Day, on the Sunday following SLC's Race for the Cure.

Officer Election
We
hold nominations and elections for the board every two years, in June.
We encourage members to become board members. |

for this, we will have monthly hikes June through October. Want to
hike or walk in our beautiful area? Contact Rochelle
Kaplan for more info or to offer suggestions and help. |

groups. For more info, contact Karen
