Sukkot Communal Lunches: As we know that there are people out there who aren't able to build their own sukkah this year, we are organizing volunteer-led communal lunches in the shul Sukkah for the first two days of Sukkot. These lunches will have a potluck feel, but all the food will be catered by Moti's. We will be serving deli and salads for lunch both days and the meals will start ~30 minutes after services end. (There will also be a vegetarian option.) Because these meals weren't part of the synagogue's budget, we are asking that everyone who wants to attend sign up and pay in advance by Monday 10/2 at 3p. We will only order food for those who sign up by that time. - Thursday, October 5 12:30pm / Friday, October 6 12:30pm
