OK everyone, here’s the September 2009-February 2010 Kiddush Rotation! Dates and names follow below, and after that are "the rules" of how the rotation works. Please note that an asterisk next to someone's name means that he/she requested that particular date and will probably not want to switch dates.
Also, you’ll see I’ve scheduled three potluck kiddushes: October 10 (Columbus Day weekend), November 28 (Thanksgiving weekend) and December 26 (That Holiday weekend).
"P.L." = "Potluck Lunch." In general, when we have potluck lunches, we have them on the fourth Shabbat. Thus, there are dates when potluck lunches are possible but not confirmed. Check the WSM Web site and watch the announcements closer to the date.
Thanks to all!

A reminder of "the rules":
1) An asterisk appears next to the name of anyone who
requested a particular date. If you requested a particular
date and then find yourself unable to bring kiddush, try
to switch with someone whose name is NOT followed by an
asterisk. (Since presumably such a person will not want
to switch dates.)
2) Anyone (asterisk or not) who discovers he/she can't
bring kiddush on the assigned date is responsible for
(a) finding a substitute, and
(b) notifying me of the change, so I can keep track.
Ideally any changes and notifications should be completed
and sent to me by Thursday of the week you're changing.
3) If you're assigned to bring kiddush on a day when a
potluck lunch is scheduled, no need to include any "real
food" with the kiddush. Light stuff is just fine. However, please note that at this point all potluck lunches listed above are tentative--so be sure you check closer to the date. Also, it's possible potluck lunches could be scheduled at other times, so again, please check.
4) There is nothing stopping you from finding a sub "outside
the group." Spread the joy!
5) I make no promises about reminding anyone when it's
his/her turn to bring kiddush. So please mark your calendars!
6) Please note dates for potluck kiddushes. (There are three on this rotation: October 10 (Columbus Day weekend), November 28 (Thanksgiving weekend) and December 26 (That Holiday weekend). It’s also possible shul-wide or joint-minyan potluck kiddushes will end up being scheduled on those dates. If all of us bring a little something, we should be fine. And if we don't join another minyan that week, we'll still be fine with whatever each of us brings.
You'll no doubt note that not everyone in the chevra is
on the rotation. But those of you that I didn't assign this
time are still WELCOME to participate! You can split a kiddush
with someone, take it over, whatever!
