| Temple Israel "Rigadoo" Fundraising Committee chairs, Minneapolis |
|
Jewish Historical Society of the Upper Midwest
Temple Israel was originally known as Shaari Tov, "The Gates of Goodness." Organized in 1878, it was Minneapolis's first Jewish congregation. The first Shaari Tov building burned, and a second was constructed in 1902. A third building was completed in 1928 to accommodate the greatly expanded membership. Then came the Depression. The congregation had borrowed $150,000 on pledges from members to build their new $225,000 Temple and many could not pay their pledges or dues. And so the "Rigadoo" was born, a weekend carnival where the Men's Club and Sisterhood solicited sale goods and prizes. In five years "Rigadoo" netted $25,000, enough to save the building.
