About the Blue Yarmulke Award

The Blue Yarmulke Award program was created for the "unsung hero of the Men's Club. The member who is always there, contributes willingly and doesn't get recognized."  The awardee is a hard working contributor who helps in a daily minyan, has created a successful program for our club, or works in the kitchen.

Jonathan Stone – Blue Yarmulke Of the Year Award

A member of Congregation Beth El of Montgomery County for over 20 years, a successful lawyer, a loving husband and father of two, Jon has been a leader in our Mens Club in recent years. He served as President for 2007 and 2008, often leading morning services and maintaining several programs single-handedly: the monthly Mincha/Maariv/Havdallah experience, annual kosher wine tasting and annual Chanukah Party. We are also grateful to Jon for his inimicable wit as shown in his brief autobiography below.
