(SYOSSET, N.Y.) - Nassau County Legislator Arnold W. Drucker (D - Plainview) joined with the leaders of Congregation Simchat HaLev, the Syosset-Woodbury Chamber of Commerce and local residents on Thursday, Dec. 7 to light the community Menorah on the first night of Hanukkah. The celebration took place at 50 Jackson Ave. in Syosset just north of the Syosset LIRR. The community continued gathering each night during Hanukkah to light the menorah.
“As the sun set upon Syosset on the first night of Hanukkah, it offered all of us a beautiful opportunity to rejoice in the miracles of the holiday season, reflect upon the many blessings in our lives, and pray for lasting peace for Israel and the world,” Legislator Drucker said. “We are thankful to Rabbi Jay Weinstein of Congregation Simchat HaLev, the Syosset-Woodbury Chamber of Commerce and the entire community for hosting such a meaningful gathering.”
