Welcome the Festival of Sukkot with song, prayer and togetherness. All are welcome to join us for a brief outdoor service for the whole family, featuring music and prayer to welcome the Festival of Sukkot! Family friendly, warm and welcoming service for all – hosted in our Congregation’s Sukkah.
Bring your own picnic dinner – free! Or, pre-order a Sugarfire BBQ Dinner (all pre-packaged) – $18 for adults; $12 for children under 10. Choice of Beef Brisket or Smoked Turkey, sides, beverage and dessert!
An Educational Tasting of 4 Bourbons with Chef Andrew Shrensker, bourbon expert – $20. For adults only.
We will learn about and taste 4 different bourbons, facilitated in a casual, informative and fun way! We’ll learn about the different ingredients and flavors and taste different things together. (Small samples of each bourbon will be served.)
After our learning and tasting, you can bring your own favorite bourbon to talk about and share with others. In celebration of Sukkot, we invite those who have come before us and who have shaped us into the people we are today to join us spiritually.
Thanks to our co-chairs for making this event possible: Harvey Brandvein, Stewart Sheinbein, Sam Silverstein, Greg Yawitz

Sukkot is a holiday of many themes: joy, harvest, sustenance, impermanence – all symbolized in the simple structure of a sukkah. Join with Rabbi Goldstein to explore these themes and more through prayer, meditation and walking the labyrinth. All are welcome.

Services start at 6:30 – come a bit early to schmooze!
