A WEEK from today, one of Denver Jewry’s most visible figures — Bruce DeBoskey, regional director of the Anti-Defamation League for nearly a decade — will hang up his proverbial spurs.

When he discussed his impending ride into the ADL sunset, DeBoskey was all smiles. He shed not a single tear nor expressed a single regret, and he was more than willing to share his impressive collection of memories.

Proudest accomplishments?

OKAY, so it wasn’t the Broncos vs. the Bears at Mile High.

But it was a heckuva fun football game all the same, and you couldn’t hope for better seats.

On a steamy August morning at DU’s snazzy outdoor field, the Denver flag football team took on Chicago-Springfield in a quick (45 minutes at most) but action-filled contest.

It was but one of scores of youthful matches to take place this week in Denver, host of the 2010 JCC Maccabi Games, in which some 1,300 athletes from across the world participated in baseball, basketball, bowling, flag football, golf, soccer, swimming, tennis, track and field and volleyball competitions.
