Are you ready for the dinner of a century?
Baltimore, MD - July 17, 2017 - It's not every day that a Yeshiva turns 100 years old. Just a handful of yeshivos around the world can take pride in continuously providing Torah true chinuch to generations of students non-stop for 100 years. In 1917, Rav Avraham Nachman Schwartz founded TA with 6 students. At the time, no one could have imagined what TA would be 100 years later. That small fledgling day school in Baltimore not only survived, but thrived over the last century to a point where it is now being mechanech over 1,000 students a year, and is once again building with a major campus expansion.
TA has been home to some of the greatest Torah and lay leaders of our time both as faculty and as students. So many in our community have been touched by TA's unique brand of chinuch and warmth, and many have had the merit of benefiting from TA for two, three or even four generations. In celebration of all that has been accomplished by this monumental bastion of Torah, Yeshivas Chofetz Chaim - Talmudical Academy of Baltimore is holding its centennial dinner celebration.
The Centennial Tribute, in memory of Mr. Yerachmiel Baruch Friedman z"l will be accepted by his family, Mrs. Judy (Friedman) Pressman, Mr. and Mrs. Alan Friedman, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Tzvi Friedman, Mr. and Mrs. Levi Friedman, Rabbi and Mrs. Yisroel Fuchs, and Mr. and Mrs. Jules Friedman.
The Yeshiva will recognize Mr. Emanuel J. Friedman & Family and Mr. and Mrs. Norton Foxman with the Master Builders Tribute.
A special ceremony will pay tribute to the chairmen of our board who not only played a pivotal role in our Yeshiva's history but our community's as well. This Lifetime Leadership Award will celebrate the dedication of Dean & Mrs. Larry Katz, Rabbi and Mrs. Shmuel Rochkind, Mr and Mrs. Allan Gibber, Dr. and Mrs. Michael Elman, Mr. and Mrs. Chaim Wealcatch, Dr. and Mrs. Joel Pleeter and Mr. and Mrs. Ari Krupp.
Several committees have been organized to assist in this monumental campaign. The Centennial Dinner Chairs are Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Wolasky and Mr. and Mrs. Yehuda Neuberger. The Grandparent Dinner Chairs are the Honorable Senator and Mrs. Joseph Lieberman.
