HYDE PARK — K.A.M. Isaiah Israel will hold a dreidel tournament on Friday, with the winner deciding what charity the synagogue should donate to.

The synagogue at 1100 E. Hyde Park Blvd. will host the tournament as part of a 6:30 p.m. Hanukkah dinner on Friday, the fifth day of the Festival of Lights.
