Jewish Federation of St. Louis will hold it third and final event of the 2013–14 UMB Event Series for members of its professional trade series with a night of fun at a hockey game. “A Cool Night With the Blues” will take place Tuesday, March 4 at 6:30 pm the Scottrade Center. Members of the Cardozo, Maimonides and Montefiore Societies will watch the St. Louis Blues play the Tampa Bay Lightning in a private suite and enjoy a meet and greet with special guests from the St. Louis Blues. The event is free for society members, but because there is a limited quantity of tickets, pre-registration is required by February 21 at JFedSTL.org/UMBseries.
The 2013–14 UMB series kicked off September 16 at the UMB Champions Club at Busch Stadium and was enjoyed by more than 60 attendees. Society-level donors experienced stadium tours, a discussion with Cardinals Baseball owner Bill DeWitt, and pictures with the 2011 World Series trophy. The second event, in November, featured a thought-invoking panel discussion on “The Cost of Education.”
This is the second year UMB has funded a professional society event series for Federation’s trade societies. Trade society members are professional and philanthropic leaders in the St. Louis Jewish and general communities. The Cardozo Society is open to Jewish attorneys and judges. The Maimonides Society is open to Jewish physicians, dentists and healthcare professionals at the doctorate level. The Montefiore Society is open to Jewish accountants, stockbrokers, bankers, financial planners, insurance brokers and others in financial services. All societies also are open to students in the respective fields. Society membership is open to donors who give $1800 to Jewish Federation of St. Louis’ Annual Community Campaign ($1000 for those younger than 45, and $118 for students). The societies promote camaraderie among local Jewish professionals, strengthen commitment to Jewish values and traditions through educational and cultural activities, and support the activities of the Jewish Federation of St. Louis.
Chairs of the UMB Event Series are Ken Rubin, Michael Goldberg, Maury Poscover, Burt Garland, Dr. Carl Lyss and Dr. Barry Singer.
