Meet your 2011-2012 AETY Executive Board!
AETY Executive Board Vision Statement
The AETY Executive Board, as part of Temple Adat Elohim Youth Group, will work together to accomplish the following goals:
Work as a team to create a community, and Youth Group culture, that will bring together, and support, all Youth Group members. Help keep our Jewish history and traditions alive through active Youth Group involvement. Help foster a strong, long-lasting connection to Judaism in both themselves and other Youth Group members. In so doing, the AETY Executive Board will strive to build strong, dynamic Jewish identities, and life-long connections to each other, and our Temple, through unique and exciting social events and actively participating in Tikkun Olam, helping to heal our world.
We welcome this special group as they help redefine, and build, our growing Temple Youth Group.
Rob - Historian - "I chose to be on the AETY Executive Board because I want to be a part of the group that organizes activities and also participates in those activities. I also think it will be fun! I hope to make a difference in the Temple community and organize some awesome activities for the Youth of our Temple. I also want to strengthen my friendships with my peers."
Jill - Publicity - "I want to be on the Executive Board at Adat Elohim to help encourage kids to be a part of our Jewish community, and unite us all so we can bond and get closer to one another. I want to be a part of creating fun and exciting activities, and discussing our Jewish tradition and why it means so much too each one of us."
Brittany - Social Action Vice President - "I am on Board because I feel connected to the Temple in a different way than I have been for the past 10 years. I’m here to stay connected to my faith, to God and to my friends and make a difference at TAE."
Jamie - Historian, Membership Vice President - "I am excited for the opportunity to be on the AETY Executive Board and become even more connected to Temple Adat Elohim. It has been my home for as long as I can remember and I hope to give back to the Temple and the community. I look forward to the many projects we will be working on throughout the year."
Gunnar - Programming Vice President - "I am choosing to be on AETY Executive Board because I believe it’s important for kids to be involved and connected at the Temple. I hope that we can establish a permanent AETY Board that will work toward creating a place for all members to feel at home, and participate."
Josh - President - "Since I first came to TAE I always looked up to the older kids. But now, I am one! Being a member of the AETY Executive Board, I want to become more involved in Judaism, connect to the community, start traditions for future AETY’ites, and learn who I am."
