Events

You and a guest are invited to attend the District 5190-Area 8 Foundation Dinner scheduled on Friday, March 24 at the Nugget Casino Resort in the Orozko Restaurant. The featured guest speaker will be Irene Perbal. Ms. Perbal's topic will be "Hope and Hate" - Holocaust Remembrance.

Irene Perbal will present the story of her family's life in Holland under Nazi occupation. Ms. Perbal's firsthand accounts of her family's efforts to protect the local Jewish community is both poignant and inspiring. "Everyone knew that whoever helped a Jew would be treated like one," Perbal said. The story of her family, which gave sanctuary in their own house to Dutch Jews fleeing Nazi persecution, is as extraordinary as her own story. Ms. Perbal is a nationally recognized speaker and historian dedicated to preserving the firsthand history of this dark time.
