I am pleased announce that the Skwere Rebbe of Boro Park, Grand Rebbe Yechiel Michel Twersky shlita, is currently visiting the Chicago community until Thursday morning, June 17th, at the home of Rabbi Chaim Goldzweig, 6308 N Francisco Avenue. Phone number: (773) 764-5322.
Since it as Shabbos Rosh Chodesh last Shabbos, I got a wonderful package sent to me from the Rebbe shlita. It was a beautiful and extremity tasty Challah and an onion kugel and a luchson kugel. It was a great surprise to me an my family and a real chessed. I felt truly honored that the Rebbe shlita remembered me.

I don’t get it. The Sqverer have been the cause of many Chillul Hashems. Why are we honoring thm?
I’m not sure what you are refereing to.
There are two groups of “Square” chassidim in NY, those who live in New Square, NY are “Skver”, while those who live in Boro Park (Brooklyn) are “Skwere”.
You’ve got a point there I guess. I was referring to the one from New Square in upstate NY and I apologize if I case aspersions on the wrong person.
