Newbie Shelby <3s MHP

Hi. I'm Shelby. I'm new. I'm moving into MHP in a few weeks .

I hail from DC-metro area originally (what's up DC and Silver Spring?!) and have been in Phila for the past year since I graduated from Penn in 2007. Let's go Quakers!

The last few weeks of planning and organizing have made me extremely excited to make my move. The house dynamic with the MHP members is fantastic, and I have met tons of awesome 20-something Philadelphian Jews.

A quick synopsis on July's events:
yoga continues to kick our oms
eating club at the Jamaican Jerk Hut was delightfully jerky
Salsa and Sangria Party was, well, the name encompasses it all
and our Israeli-style Birthright Shabbat definitely rivaled Ben Yehuda St.

I've been working hard to get the good name of MHP around to friends and family, and have met a few interesting organizations/corporations that could provide some interesting co-sponsorships going forward.

I am looking forward to meeting the other regional Houses at the retreat in September. But until then, enjoy the rest of August and stay cool Moishe!
