Shofar - Tashlich in the Park 2020

Even in these challenging times, we gather together to hear the Shofar and fulfill the mitzvah.  Please join us for our social distancing, outdoor Shofar - Tashlich Service at Sycamore Valley Park Pond.

The combined services will last about 30 minutes.  We have scheduled an additional 15 minutes at the beginning of the services to allow attendees to safely arrive and get settled in their spots, and added 15 minutes at the end of the services to allow for a safe and social distanced departure.
