Box 1, 1995-2001

The collection contains the cookbook itself, administrative records associated with the book's planning and creation, newspaper and magazine clippings, and documents used to publicize and market the book. The majority of records are from the 1990s, although some are from the first decade of the 21st century. Most records were created by Friends of Shalom Park, the group of Denver, Colorado, volunteers and supporters who planned and coordinated the book--with the proceeds benefiting Shalom Park, a Jewish nursing home and a residential health and social services facility for seniors. The majority of article clippings come from various Colorado newspapers, but a few articles are from other parts of the United States or from national magazines. The records document the process involved in creating the cookbook, and they provide information about Jewish cooking and the Jewish community in Colorado.
