About VBS Hazak
Over 21 years ago, Rabbi Harold Shulweis (z”l) challenged a group of senior VBS members to design a program for seniors that would establish a setting at VBS for learning, socializing, and fellowship. That pioneering group of volunteers developed the basic structure for the program that continues and grows today.
Today, the VBS Hazak Community at Valley Beth Shalom is a vibrant Jewish community of VBS and non-VBS seniors committed to:
-
Lifelong Learning –

Rich array of programs, including Hazak Mondays, Lunch and Learn, small discussion groups, classes, movies
