Friends, as the past few months have unfolded, we have revised and revised again our High Holiday plans. While our current plan is most certainly different from years past, we believe the variety of programs offers something for everyone's comfort level. All in-person events will be by pre-reservation and open to members in good standing. If you have not yet logged on to the ShulCloud member portal to make your dues payment arrangements, please do so we can include you. If you need assistance logging into the portal, contact office@shaareitikvah.org.
Our goal is to accommodate everyone who is interested in attending an in-person service, for at least one service during the course of the Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur period. If space allows, we may be able to invite you to multiple services. Approximately one week prior to Rosh Hashanah we will contact you to confirm which "seating" is reserved for you. At the moment, in-person seating is limited to members only. If space allows we will be happy to accommodate visiting family and we will let you know as we get closer.
Thank you for your flexibility and understanding of the many parameters involved in making this a joyful and safe holiday season for all.
