The Chabad House of Binghamton has been an important part of my life over the past four years. I was hesitant to attend at first, but luckily I did and never looked back. I have met so many wonderful people during my time here that its hard to believe I wont be seeing them all every week. The friendships Ive made will last the rest of my life. I have also had the opportunity to take part in numerous events. I have most enjoyed the classes Ive taken and helping for and attending Shabbos meals. No where else can preparing food for over two hundred people every week be so much fun and so rewarding.
However, all of the events that I have participated in were tremendously fun and memorable.
Chabad is one of those things that we tend to take for granted. Most of us do not truly appreciate how special it is until its too late. I hope that all of the students who still have time here will take advantage of everything it has to offer. One of the reasons why Chabad is so special is because of the families that work so hard to make it function. These people have been inspiring role models to me, who will no doubt continue to do amazing things in the future.
Chabad has enriched my life in countless ways. I feel privileged to have had it in my life and sincerely thank the families and students involved from the bottom of my heart.
