Hey all.
Thanks everyone who came out last week. We'll continue to do our best to dance safely, now with boosters, and of course masks, required. (See below for instructions on how to get your booster information to me, by Wednesday please.)
With thanks for information from Ophir, we honored the memory of Yoram Taharlev z"l, lyricist for an amazing number of our Israeli dances, who just passed away. Here are some examples: Hahar Hayarok, Sulam Ya'akov, Al Kapav Yavie, Artzi, Atzei Hatzaftzafot, Bapardes Leyah Hashoket... The ADB credits him with 129 dances! Dances with lyrics from Yoram Taharlev.
Also, check out his website. Very interesting. Who knew? Yoram Taharlev

Hi Everyone,
This email is primarily for those who are not in our Chicago Israeli Dancing WhatsApp group because I have posted most of this info there.
Of course, our primary objective is to keep us all safe and keep us able to continue dancing together. Toward that end:
- If you have tested positive or have had Covid symptoms, please don't attend CID until you have tested negative at least 5 days after symptoms have subsided.
- If you have been exposed to someone who tested positive, please do not attend until you have tested negative at least 5 days after being exposed
- Follow the latest CDC Guidelines CDC
- Starting 1/13/22 proof of boosters are required for attending CID, for all those who are eligible to receive the booster. (IF YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE BOOSTER, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.) As always, either send a pic to Phil's WhatsApp (+1 312 519 8669) or email (philip_b_moss@hotmail.com)
- Until further notice, masks continue to be required
Thanks for keeping us all safe and dancing.
Happy New Year
