About the Program
BAFTY 34 is our 3rd and 4th-grade youth group.
BAFTY, which stands for Beth Am Federation of Temple Youth, offers your child an incredible opportunity to engage with Judaism through enriching social experiences. If you’re looking for a way to foster your child’s connection to their heritage and spirituality, BAFTY is the perfect choice.
Monthly Meetings: These are usually held on the first Wednesday of each month for BAFTY 34 and the third Wednesday for BAFTY 5. They’re designed to provide a dynamic and interactive environment for your child to explore Judaism while having fun with friends. The sessions run from 3:15 PM to 3:45 PM, right after Rambam Day School ends (If your child is not enrolling in any Blue J program) and just before Religious School starts. This timing allows your child to participate without disrupting their daily routine. To join our monthly meetings, register in advance and pay an annual membership fee of $50 (one-time payment for the year 2023/2024). With this fee, your child will have access to one monthly meeting filled with interactive and social programming. Detailed information will be provided upon registration. We have organized two separate groups, catering to different grade levels: BAFTY 34, designed for 3rd and 4th-grade students, and BAFTY 5, tailored for 5th-grade students.
Exciting Year-Round Events: Throughout the year, we have planned an array of special events. These range from exciting outings to unique programs held at the temple. Your child will have opportunities to immerse themselves in memorable experiences. These events typically take place on weekends, and registration details are shared as the events approach. Please note that admission to these special events is separate from the membership fee. However, as a member, you’ll receive early access to event registration.
Secure your child’s spot today and provide them with access to a year of enriching experiences.
