Valley Chabad will hold its Teen Leadership Tribute dinner on Monday, May 23, at 6:30 p.m., at the Terrace in Paramus. The dinner will honor 120 teen volunteers from the Pascack and Saddle River Valley communities who are part of Valley Chabad’s five Teen Leadership Initiative programs — Friendship Circle, Linking Hearts, CTeen, Teen JLI, and Eternal Flame. Teens, their parents and friends, community supporters, and elected officials will attend. Carly Weiner of Woodcliff Lake, an alumna of Valley Chabad’s Friendship Circle, will be the featured speaker.
