Marc Chalom
What is Marc Chalom’s first goal for Shomrei in the future? To find someone to replace him!… But it won’t be easy.
“When the alarm goes off at 2 a.m., they call me from ADT,” says the VP of Building and Grounds, since 2002. He is proud of the fact that he was in charge of renovating the kitchen in the YAC (formerly the Social Hall), daring to use red for the kitchen cabinets, created new office space out of closets on the first floor, restructured the seating to be more intimate in the sanctuary, replaced the ‘leaning wall’ outside the building, renovated the bluestone walkways at the entrance to the Sanctuary, and chaired the first ‘World Wide Wrap’, among other projects at Shomrei. “I found a way to handle most of these challenges without spending a lot of money!” he added.
