The Academies at Gerrard Berman Day School welcomed Kaskeset, SUNY Binghamton’s Jewish a cappella group, at its annual Israeli dinner. The informal family event is a part of the school’s annual fundraising initiative that brought together generations of GBDS students and their families.

Hannah Greenwald, an Academies at GBDS alumna and a Kaskeset member, was among the performers. At GBDS, she was a member of the school’s choir and she performed in the school play every year. Other GBDS alumni joined the dinner to support a fellow graduate and to spend time with their teachers.

Among the event sponsors were Zaides Bake Shop and Food Showcase, both of Fair Lawn, ShopRite of Oakland, and Stop & Shop of Wyckoff and Franklin Lakes.
