Starting with this first one, we will be posting polls on our website asking your opinion on a variety of Jewish related issues. Here is the question of the first poll...Polls will be kept running for two weeks each...

Do you believe Israel should agree to extend the settlements building slowdown before progress in Israeli-Palestinian negotiations?


Give us your opinion
  We have created two Facebook groups as open forums for community discussions and ideas. One group, open to all, is the "Jewish in Dutchess County", the other, focusing on the Rhinebeck/Redhook area is the "Jewish Alliance of Northern Dutchess"

If you already have a Facebook profile, you can just search for the groups, sign up and join the conversation. If you do not have a Facebook profile, you can create one free at
