Baltimore, MD – May 26, 2019 – If you would tell someone living in Baltimore for more than 20 years that there was a tremendous fire burning at the corner of Park Heights and Pinkney this past Wednesday evening, they would assume that the Baltimore City Fire Department would have been called to extinguish the blaze.

My how Baltimore has changed.

Khal Chasidim D’Baltimore has only increased the flame of Torah burning in our community and Wednesday night’s Hadloka for the Hilula of Rebbe Shimon Bar Yochoi was just one perfect example.

After Maariv the Rosh Kollel, Harav Hershel Rosenfeld, shlita, was m’chubad with lighting the medura and the traditional nigunim of Lag BaOmer were sung by an assortment of the Kollel’s Yungerleit accompanied with Music by Benzion Bluming. 

The crowds increase each year and this year was no different. Estimates of up to 500 people partook in the Lag baomer festivities after which Maariv and seudah were held.
