A Day at the Races for Temple Beth David

TempleBeth David recently had a very successful outing at Tampa Bay Downs.  A large group went down to spend an afternoon.  We were given our own area in the clubhouse and was served lunch.  The group had a wonderful afternoon being together and we even had a few people that won.  A race was dedicated to the Temple and a picture taken of some of us in the winner's circle.
