Presidents Message: Carole Kainen

Two years have gone by in the blink of an eye, and my time as Womens League
President is coming to an end. My term has been filled with joyous holiday
celebrations, more serious get-togethers, and so very many meetings. I've gone to
weddings, bar mitzvahs, baby showers, and sadly, some funerals. It has been
amazing to share all these events with my Temple family. My personal life has been
busy as well. Our middle daughter graduated from college in New Orleans, and we
helped her move to San Diego to begin a new chapter in her life. Our son's Bar
Mitzvah was also a major highlight, and I can't quite believe he's starting high school
in the Fall. When I started this journey two years ago, I wasn't sure I'd be able to
balance everything. How could I get all this done, and still be dedicated and
organized enough to lead Women's League?
Well, as time went on, I discovered a secret about Women's League, and I'm going to
share it with all of you. The secret of Women's Leagues success is its Sisterhood. I
found balance in the support my sisters gave me, and in their willingness to help. I
truly believe our teamwork is what made us most successful, and it is why we've been
able to accomplish so many wonderful things over the past two years, and during the
terms of the many wonderful women who served before me. Without everyone taking
part and helping, we wouldn't have been able to host events like the Member
Luncheon, the Sukkah Hop, or the Maccabee Market, nor would we have been able to
make so many charitable donations to TBS and organizations within our Community.
I am so glad for all the opportunities I've had during my term. It's reminded me how
important it is to stay involved and to help others. I've learned quite a few things along
the journey, about myself, about commitment and perseverance, and most
importantly, about the power of Jewish women working together. As your outgoing
President, I want to say thank you to all my sisters, and also reiterate my commitment
to staying involved. Don't expect to see me any less! Although it isn't an easy job,
being the President isn't so bad when you have so many amazing women who want to
give their time and help their community. Good luck to our new Presidents, whom I'm
sure will do an amazing job with incredible support!
