WANTED: New Hip Team Name
JEWS ON ICE has been great for many years, but with new students, It's time to rename our Hillel broomball team to reflect who we are. We want a name that is Jewish in nature, but that does not say the word 'Jew' in it, so hopefully we can use that name for all Hillel-sponsored Intramural sports we sponsor.

Notice Of Performance Openings For Yom Ha'atzmaut 2006

I have some 10-15 minute performance spots available for primarily acoustic single or duo acts on Yom Ha'atzmaut, Sunday, May 7 at various times between 2 and 7 p.m. at Cedar Village. These are prime-visibility showcase spots, no pay involved, however acts may promote cd's for sale if they have them. They are shorter, but concert-level, sets and will be in between the performances of our primary acts. Performers should have some related thematic material in their set, however they need not be strictly Judaic or Israeli-themed acts.
These are extremely limited, some on the main outdoor stage and some indoors in the RCC; mainstage acts will have full concert sound with stage monitors, and indoor acts will have house sound with multiple mics, stage lighting and excellent Baldwin grand piano available.
If there are any students or others in the Miami community who would be interested in being considered for one of these performance spots, they should contact me ASAP at (513) 770-0711, or by email at d_landau@msn.com.
