1962

Posted on August 3, 2022

We soon outgrew the old Chateau Baltusrol, and work went ahead to design and build Temple Beth Ahm as we know it today. The new building was dedicated on May 18, 1962, under the direction of Chairman Maurice Friedman. It would not have been possible without the untiring leadership of Milt Kappstatter, along with Mendy Mendelsohn, chairman of the building fund; Leonard Garber, chairman of the building committee; Shelly Fried, chairman of the architect committee; and many, many others. Mr. Mendelsohn was also busy editing our Temple Bulletin, a post he held for several years.
