SNHJMC

Since 1982 the Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men’s Club has been a social organization for men in the southern New Hampshire Jewish community. The SNHJMC was formed for the purpose of providing a vehicle for members to socialize and have fun!

The Club’s mission is based on building a brotherhood of like-minded men who wish to share their commitment and values to those in the greater Southern New Hampshire Jewish community. The Southern New Hampshire Jewish Men’s Club is a non-profit organization serving all male members of the Southern NH Jewish Community regardless of synagogue membership for over thirty years.

We have positive relationships with Synagogues in the Southern New Hampshire area. Many of our members belong to Temple Beth Abraham in Nashua, Congregation Betenu in Amherst, and Etz Hayim Synagogue in Derry. 

The Southern NH Jewish Men’s Club Meat & Greet Open House featuring “The Deli Man” feature film presentation will take place on Wednesday, November 19th at 5:30 PM at Temple Beth Abraham. Join us for a warm and welcoming schmooze session bringing together old friends and prospective new members for a fun time dining on your choice of deli sandwich while meeting our new Board of Directors and enjoying a great film!

Your individual deli sandwich box (including a side of coleslaw and a pickle) from Chani’s Kosher Deli will be served at 5:30 pm. You’ll be able to purchase your choice of 11 different sandwiches beginning November 4th by visiting Chani’s Kosher Deli’s online ordering site at: https://www.chaniskosher.com/#most-popular. Simply Click “pickup” then click Temple Beth Abraham and confirm location then click green bar with date and time. Then simply select which sandwich that you wish to order and check out online using a major credit card. If you are bringing a guest, please place a separate order for each of you.

This is important since if you decide to join the Men’s Club, you will receive a $10 discount on your first year’s membership fee. Current members will receive a $10 discount off your next breakfast! Chani’s Kosher Deli will track all orders placed on their site and supply us with a list of names so that we will be able to properly credit your membership fee, or next breakfast. Don’t miss this opportunity to get a Kosher Pastrami or Corned Beef Sandwich with coleslaw and a pickle for a net cost of only $7.95 while spending an enjoyable evening with friends and watching a great feature film!

Rotten Tomatoes describes “The Deli Man” as a mouth-watering, heart-warming dive into the world of endangered Jewish delicatessens and the kitchen maestros cooking to keep the culinary tradition alive. Third-generation deli man Ziggy Gruber shares his story in this film that examines the history behind the finest delicatessens in the United States. This film directed by Erik Greenberg Anjou and features guest appearances by Jerry Stiller, Fyvush Finkel, Larry King, Freddie Roman and Alan Dershowitz.

New members will be able to join on the spot should they wish to take advantage of the $10 discount. Membership in the Men’s Club is available for a suggested donation of $36. Please contact our Treasurer should a financial constraint be a concern. As always, your membership may be paid when you arrive or by mailing a check to SNHJMC Treasurer c/o Temple Beth Abraham, 4 Raymond Street, Nashua, NH 03064.

We look forward to breaking bread with new and old friends on Wednesday, November 19th! Please join us!

Do you have children or grandchildren who will be traveling to Israel as part of a semester abroad or a summer experience?  How about local Jewish summer camps?

The philanthropic arm of the Southern NH Jewish Men’s Club, the Bruce Retchin/Neil Goren fund, was instituted to provide financial stipends for our community’s youth planning such ventures. All that is required is a letter from your student or camper outlining their plans and the educational benefit of the program or camp they are attending.

Please send your request to the SNHJMC, c/o Temple Beth Abraham, 4 Raymond Street, Nashua NH 03064.  We ask that we receive your request by April 15th each year for consideration.

Join the Board.  We don’t ask for a lot of time, a mostly monthly board meeting usually a week before each event, and would hope you could share your creativity and wisdom in helping us craft the programming this year.  We want to provide programming for what YOU and your fellow members would like to see.  Help us make that vision a reality.

We can always use help for programming and events.  You don’t have to be a board member to help!  The Officers and Board always want to hear from our members about anything related to the Club, Programming, or Events.  Your creativity and ideas are always needed!  Please reach out to the President at president@snhjmc.org.

Our Kitchen Krew is looking for help, now that we are able to have events at the Temple again.  If you can spare some time before breakfast to help cook, or setup, we could use your help.  Please consider joining us!

For more information, please contact Monroe Kahn at president@snhjmc.org.  Thank you!
