No matter what your religious affiliation may be, everyone can participate in Margate’s shop small weekend right now. We always need to support our local businesses whenever possible. Our Jewish families at the Jersey Shore know that Chanukah begins at sundown this Sunday, November 28th. Chabad at the Shore planned several Chanukah celebrations throughout this eight-day festival of lights. So, if you want to celebrate with them, make sure you carve out some time in your schedule.
Chanukah Celebrations at the Shore
1st Night of Chanukah
Come to the Chabad Chai Center located at 6605 Atlantic Ave in Ventnor on Sunday, November 28th for some first night of Chanukah festivities. These include firefighters throwing chocolate gelt to the crowds, food and drinks for sale (kosher hot dogs, latkes, donuts, and hot chocolate), and a special performance by the children’s choir. The celebration begins at 5 pm.
