Even with the high winds this
week, our Valley Eruv is FUNCTIONAL for
this Shabbos! |
|
The Valley Eruv checkbook balance is
very low, about $400. That means when
we next have a serious break in the
lines, we will not be able to repair
it. It is everyone’s responsibility to
financially support the Valley Eruv
society. Please make sure that you send
in a check urgently. Be generous. If
you cannot remember when you last sent
in a check, send in a large check now!
In spite of the rains, our Valley
Eruv is Functional for Shabbos. |

About
The Valley
Eruv Repairs
In February/March 2009, the Valley
Eruv had replaced the complete
perimeter lengths of monofilament
lines, at an original bid of
$25,000. We were able to pay less
due to the work being completed in
the installer’s slow season. Since
then we have suffered a series of
general and common maintenance
issues. The Valley Eruv, like all
Eruvim, require weekly inspection
and responses. Beginning weekly on
Wednesday through every Erev
Shabbos, every week; there are many
people who quietly work behind the
scenes to make sure the Valley Eruv
is “FUNCTIONAL” for each Shabbos.
Until the web site, www.ValleyEruv.org,
is updated to FUNCTIONAL, the Valley
Eruv lines are checked, repaired
where necessary, rechecked,
re-inspected, and the Valley Eruv
inspectors, Rav HaMachshir, and
administrators and eruv board are
called upon for their special
services to the eruv. We have
community leaders who are anxious to
help when their expertise is
useful. All this is coordinated on
a weekly “as needed” basis. And this
happens quietly without fanfare on a
weekly basis. Please think about
making a donation to support the
Valley Eruv. We need your financial
participation, today. Thank you.

Bar Mitzvah
Bachur Donates to the Valley Eruv!
 We
are very proud of Elan Litenatsky
for demonstrating his being a true
ben Torah. One of the first mitzvos
that Elan did after his recent Bar
Mitzvah was to share, magnanimously,
the money he received for his Bar
Mitzvah for the needs of the
community. Elan donated enough money
to support an entire section of the
eruv. |

Eruv
Update
1/1/2010 2:00pm:
The broken
monofilament lines have been fixed and
the Valley Eruv Checkers along with our
Rav HaMachshir, Rav Eidlitz, have
inspected the repairs to declare the
Valley Eruv is FUNCTIONAL for this
Shabbos. The entire community is truly
in debt for the work of the esteemed Rav
HaMachshir, Valley Eruv inspectors, and
Administration of the Valley Eruv who
work diligently week-to-week to provide
our community with a proper community
Eruv. |

Eruv
Update
12/30/2009 1:30pm:
Once again the
Valley Eruv is down and the
administration, Rav Hamachshir and
Valley Eruv checkers are directly
involved in repairing and instructing
how to correct. There are two
monofilament lines down in one area.
Usually this kind of break is caused by
a large truck with a tall cargo snapping
the monofilament lines which cross major
intersections. Whenever we have any
Eruv break, we begin immediately to work
on repairing the problem. At this time
the Valley Eruv is down. Please make
certain to check back and make sure the
Valley Eruv is functional prior to using
it this Shabbos. Please send in your
donations now! YOU can still get your
2009 tax write off. |

Eruv
Update
12/23/2009 2:10pm:
In order to make
our Valley Eruv kosher for this week we
had to repair a street pole which was
taken down by a car. After that we
needed to replace the monofilament lines
which connect the pole to the other
parts of the Valley Eruv. All of this
costs a great deal of money and many
individuals’ time. |
