Summary

[edit]
Description
English: 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.
