Chabad celebrates first night of Chanukah

Members of Chabad of Sussex County in Sparta, took advantage of the unseasonably warm weather to have music and other activities at the lighting of the menorah at Sparta Plaza, to make the event more fun and interesting for the children who attended with their families. Rabbi Shmuel Lewis, left, with his son, Ephraim, 4, was enthusiastic about the crowd. Sparta Mayor Manny Goldberg was invited to light the menorah. The service was held for the first time at the same location where the Chabad holds its services. Both Goldberg and Rabbi Lewis are enthusiastic about the way such events strengthen the community.
