Planning a Simcha at Darkhei Noam

We are delighted to have you celebrate your simcha at Darkhei Noam. Please start by emailing our administrator Mandy at administrator@dnoam.org. After you clear the date with Mandy you will need to contact our simcha coordinator Tamar Major at smachot@dnoam.org to work out all the other details. Please be aware that we have extensive guidelines and that it is crucial for you to speak to our coordinator before you engage in any planning. It is advisable to plan a bar/bat mitzvah as far in advance as possible because we have various expectations of the bar/bat mitzvah which require several months of planning. We request that anyone planning a simcha at Darkhei Noam be a member in good standing. If you have not already joined, now is your time to do so, just click here.
