Oliver will celebrate his Bar Mitzvah on May 23, 2009 at Herzl-Ner Tamid Conservative Congregation on Mercer Island.
Oliver is the son of Richard and Barrie Galanti of Mercer Island and the brother of Sam and Rachel. His grandparents are Al and Ruth Sanft of Seattle and Sam and Ann Galanti of Atlanta, Ga.
Oliver is in the 7th grade at the Jewish Day School. His interests include football, basketball, lacrosse, wakeboarding, fly fishing, cooking and hanging out with his friends and family. For his mitzvah project, Oliver will donate a portion of his Bar Mitzvah gifts to the campership fund at Jewish Family Service in order to send kids to camp that would not otherwise be able to attend. He will also purchase new sports equipment for the Snohomish YMCA and Rainier Vista Boys and Girls Club.
