The auditorium at the Riverdale Y is full of people who came to see the Annual Bronx Menorah Lighting by Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. and the Bronx Jewish Community Council.
The Consul General of Israel Ambassador Dani Dayan, along with Bronx elected officials Councilman Ruben Diaz Sr. (Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr.'s father), City Councilman Andy King, Councilman Andrew Cohen, and Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz were in the front row.
Master of Ceremonies Mark Engel introduced the speakers and performing schools, leading up to the lighting of the Bronx Menorah.
