Chai Lights: Ten years of KOACH

July 1st, 2011

KOACH celebrated its 10th anniversary on June 2 at Congregation Beth Israel. About 150 attended the event, which included lunch and a musical performance by former Milwaukeeans, the vocal and piano duo Wendy Becker and Rik Howard. KOACH provides stimulating and entertaining programs for adults at the JCC and six participating Milwaukee-area synagogues.
