Temple Sinai B'nai Mitzvahs

Richard Bernard Koplow

Ricky Koplow, son of Ira and Ann Koplow, will be called to the Torah as a Bar Mitzvah on November 15, 2008 at Temple Sinai. Ricky is a 7th grade honor student at Leavitt Middle and is a member of the National Junior Honor Society.

For his mitzvah project, Ricky supported several clean-up campaigns at Lone Mountain and Red Rock. He is dedicated to improving the parks and neighborhoods by making them more environmentally attractive.

Ricky was born in Idaho Falls, Idaho and moved to Las Vegas in 2005. Ricky is an excellent athlete and plays baseball, basketball, tennis and enjoys skiing and snowboarding with his family and friends in Idaho. His parents and sister, Katie, are very proud of him and wish him continued success.

 

Remy Elise Schlossberg (Rivka Esther), daughter of Gail and Alan Schlossberg, was born in Las Vegas, Nevada on November 3, 1995. She is the granddaughter of Roslyn Levitt and Marilyn Schlossberg of Las Vegas, and Robert Schlossberg of West Palm Beach, Florida. Remy is currently in the 7th grade at the Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G. Adelson Educational Campus, Middle School. She has been attending this school and its associate school, the Milton I. Schwartz Hebrew Academy for 11 years. She has been a straight A student there for many years.

 

Because of the caliber of her education, and the care and love she has received over the years from the wonderful staff and families at her school, Remy and her parents befittingly have chosen the Adelson Educational Campus as the setting where she will become a Bat Mitzvah, with Rabbi Kenneth Segel of Temple Sinai officiating. This past year, Remy attended People to People World Leadership Forum in Washington, D.C. She was nominated for this exciting experience because of her academic and leadership qualities.

Remy's special interests include tennis, fencing, soccer, swimming and art, and she loves spending time cuddling with her cat, Cutie. She volunteers at the Shade Tree Children's Activity Center where she assists the children with art projects. As part of this mitzvah, she is also asking the community for donations of art supplies so that the children of the Shade Tree can continue to develop their artistic abilities, while at the same time create art for sale at their upcoming fundraiser.

She adores her family and friends, and is so looking forward to her Bat Mitzvah on November 8, 2008, where she will be joined by her friends and family from all over the country, as she celebrates this special milestone in her life. Her parents, Alan and Gail, are so proud of her many accomplishments, but most importantly, the warm and loving person she has become.

Joshua Blaustein, son of Beth and Jim Blaustein, brother of Craig and Kelly, will be called to the Torah to become a Bar Mitzvah on Saturday, October 25, 2008 at Temple Sinai. Proud grandparents are Anne and Bill Brenner from Cleveland, Ohio. Josh was born in Beachwood, Ohio and has lived in Las Vegas for a little over a year.

Josh is a seventh grader at the Adelson Middle School. He is a member of the national Junior Honor Society at Rogich Middle School. He enjoys being a member of the Temple Sinai Youth Group and playing golf. In addition, he loves spending time with friends and his two dogs.

For his Mitzvah project, Josh went to Deer Creek on Mount Charleston on a cleaning expedition. He plans on continuing this activity on a regular basis.

Josh is very happy to have his family and friends from here and out of town coming to celebrate his Bar Mitzvah.
