Every Tuesday, the second floor of the DSN Beach Club becomes a lively hub where women of all ages gather for spirited games of Canasta and Mahjong. 10 to 20 tables are occupied each week, as friends reserve their spots in advance. Accompanied by delectable fare from Jeli’s or Outpost, the women spend the day immersed in their games, all while savoring the breathtaking oceanview from the second floor. These Tuesdays have become a winter gathering tradition. One member, Joy Assoulin notes, “I love coming and eating lunch and sitting in a beautiful, bustling room. I forget I am in New Jersey as I feel transported and immersed in my playing.”
Wednesdays at 12:20 P.M. you can witness a spiritual feast as Rabbi Joey Dayon graces TEVA restaurant with his presence. Drawing an average of 100 women each week, the Torah class has been a consistent success for four months. Rabbi Dayon, humbled by the turnout, acknowledges the uniqueness of the community, emphasizing the significance of coming together to study. Millie Abadi, a regular attendee, expresses her gratitude for the inspiring messages, making Wednesdays a part of her “feel good” routine. Raquel Sasson, another member, attends with her daughters, finding the sessions a profound infusion of inspiration and meaning into their lives. Rabbi Dayon skillfully combines Torah teachings with real-life lessons, creating a meaningful bridge to everyday experiences. Guest rabbis who have given women classes at the Beach Club over the past months have been Rabbi Eli Mansour, Rabbi Meyer Yedid, and Rabbi Moshe Malka.
The concept of Torah at the Beach Club has gained popularity, further emphasizing the unique and blended sense of community that thrives at DSN. It fosters connection and meaning. Participants connect virtually through Zoom, broadening the reach and impact of these weekly gatherings.
