Aurora,
you will be fine at a Chabad event.
While I do have reservations about Chabad, Their outreach is great and the people they send out for outreach are really socialble people. People who are really friendly many times in a hostile evironment. Also its likley the people you will see there are more like yourself than you think.
I really think you will enjoy yourself and unlike a shabbos or other Holiday you can leave and drive away whenever you want
I know the mods dont usually allow advertising for event, but Chabad usually has a huge menorah lighting ceremony at the entrance of Central Park at 5th Ave and 59th St. They use a Cherry Picker and a Blow Torch to light the Menorah and its pretty cool. They also give out Latkes and sing some Chanukah Songs
I was pass the area a few weeks ago and did not see the Menorah, I am sure they are just cleaning it up.
Perhaps a train or Bus ride to NY on Sunday. Spending the Day in NYC and seeing the Menorah Lighting which would be between 5-6pm and you could be home by about 9pm
Hello zahavasdad,
Thank you for your thoughtful suggestions and the way you go out of your way to be welcoming to a newcomer like me 🙂
Hello kkls45,
I have been thinking of you over Chanukah and hoping that you are back in your home or will very soon be there. Whatever is going on, I wish you and your loved ones the best and am here if you need virtual support!
