Dr Roberts
Thank you for arranging this amazing chol hamoed event. It was well organized, you can tell that every last detail was thought about. It is way better than most of the paid alternatives. It has something for all ages and the ruach is perfect for chol hamoed.
May Hashem bentch you and your entire family!
Amen. We try hard. We’ll be meeting next week to write what needs to be improved then implement changes.
Dr. Roberts, THANK YOU SO MUCH…another terrific carnival…
just one comment for Dr. Roberts…if possible, for the NOSH, maybe you can try to have all of the NOSH to be gluten-free…(today, one nosh was gluten-free and one was not gluten-free)
Anyway, Dr Roberts, YOU ARE THE BEST.
Thank you for your kind words.
We have a group of about 15 children in my neighborhood, of different ages, taste test the noshes then vote. Please check the labels since I won’t be able to assure that they’re gluten free.
Dr. Roberts,
Thank you for such a beautiful entertaining & generous event! Our children loved the sketch boards too!
Signed,
A happy grateful family.
Thank you Dr Roberts for an incredible carnival!
It is so appreciated!!
Thanks also to all the volunteers who helped everything run smoothly!
Dr. Roberts, YOU ARE A HERO!!!
My grandchildren had an amazing Chol Hamoed trip! Hashem should continue to shower you with Koach, Gezunt, & Nachas from your family and Gantz Klal Yisroel! What a Kiddush Hashem!
Dr. Roberts,
A truly heartfelt thank you from the depths of our hearts for a wonderful carnival for the children. Chol hamoed can be so challenging for many families in so many ways. Thank you for thinking of all of us and how to make our yom tov special and memorable. May you be showered with bracha and hatzlocha.
THANK YOU DR ROBERTS!!
We had an absolutely amazing time. The carnival is a true chessed for us. May Hashem repay your kindness as only He can.
What an amazing event! Thank you thank you ! What a zchus
Dr. Roberts, this is such a special way to use one’s means, you are a shining example to so many. Thank you so much! We enjoyed every part of the event from the prizes, to the nosh, to the shows. To the ample bathrooms and super clear signage all over. Fabulous job. So well executed!
Shaya Liefer, and his team, do a fantastic job. Regarding using one’s means, I would take the pleasure of helping so many frum people, over having a boat or multiple homes, anytime. Truthfully, I could have both. But I don’t want the other stuff. One becomes a slave to more physical possessions.
Dr Roberts. You are one of a kind. Thanks for your generous donation of money and time to do good for klal yisroel.
Thank you for your kind words. We’ll start working on the Pesach carnival next week.
thank you!!
Thank you Dr. Roberts – my kids loved the carnival this year!! We did not go to the story teller but the Chicago Boys, Jump Rope Show and Circus were all a HUGE hit! Thank you, Thank you and Thank you again.
The setup of the stage in the center of the room was also a wonderful improvement!!
Dr. Roberts,
Thanks for such a beautiful event!!!
Dr Roberts
Thank you very much we really enjoyed the carnival! Keep them coming
thank you so much for a great day today. we really appreciate all that you do
Dr Roberts, you are truly unbelievable, not only do you put together the best carnival for CHOL HAMOED, you actually respond to our comments!
We understand that you test the nosh with 15 children in your neighborhood, however we just want to let you know that a majority of nosh is gluten-free.
If at all possible, maybe you can please test different noshes and after you have the top three or four noshes, at that point you can just choose only the gluten-free noshes for your carnival. It would be a tremendous help, since there are children that only eat gluten-free that are coming to your wonderful carnival and it would make them feel so much better (these children have it so difficult going to school, camp, trips and their friends can eat everything and they are limited to gluten-free) if they can come to a carnival and they are able to eat anything knowing that Dr. Roberts took care that all nosh is gluten-free.
Again thank you so, so, so much for this wonderful carnival!
We can’t thank you enough Dr Roberts for an unbelievable day. We haven’t been to the carnival since it moved to the stadium and were amazed at all the improvements and all the attention to detail that made this experience so beautiful and a real kiddush hashem.
Just a thought for next time- additional water stands
Thanks for everything @Dr Roberts
Unreal how much planning, thought, love & effort go into making this extravaganza a reality. HaShem should give u the koach & moach to keep this up. What a zchus to make so many people happy!!!
Dr.Roberts You are amaizing! I just asked my niece what her best chol hamoed trip was (She went on lots) and she told me the roberts carnival!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Dr. Roberts,
It means the world to us that you have provided an amazing Chol Hamoed venue for those that don’t fall into the various categories of “Special or “Needy” (for whom there are beautiful organizations that have all inclusive full day-family fun programs that many of our realtives attend, but we are left out of)
We all have challenges in our daily life, whether they are recognized or not, and every family can be rejuvenated through a great Chol Hamoed trip. We are so appreciative of your
generosity in having “open admission!” It is a major undertaking to prepare for such crowds, enabling all of us “regulars” the opportunity to enjoy a special day.
May Hashem repay you and your family with many, many more Special Days together!
