Changes at Mebourne Eruv
The Chairman of the Board of Directors of Melbourne Eruv, Mr Romy Leibler, has announced that the Foundation Administrator of the Melbourne Eruv, Dr Peter Kloot, has retired.
He has been replaced by Mr David Prins, who is well known in the Community from his various activities including leading services at St Kilda Hebrew Congregation on Yamim Noraim, giving shiurim at the Mizrachi Kehilla, and writing Divrei Torah published by Caulfield Beth HaMedrash, Mizrachi, and the Blake Street Synagogue. Mr Prins operates his own consulting company, and his new position with Melbourne Eruv should be a good fit with his professional career.
Mr Leibler thanked Dr Kloot, who held his position for 19 years, for his conscientious service to the Community at large in his position as Eruv Administrator over such a long period. He welcomed Dr Kloot’s continuing association with Melbourne Eruv as a Consultant with special responsibility for establishing the northern extension to the Eruv. This is intended to include Malvern Chabad, the Montefiore Homes, Cabrini Hospital Malvern, and The Avenue Hospital.
