Other Questions you may have:
Q: Can I bring my kids to services? What if they can't sit still or be quiet for 3 hours?
A: Yes! We are a very kid-friendly synagogue. There are toys/books in the back of services, toys/books in the lobby, and a youth lounge with foosball, connect 4 and games for when the kids need a break. It is perfectly acceptable to get up and leave when you need to.
Q: Are there any special rules I need to know about?
A: The biggest thing to know is not to use your cell phone in the building or any sort of electronic device. You may NOT take photos at services.
Q: What should I wear to services?
A: Generally, our synagogue's tradition is to dress modestly, meaning no spaghetti straps or short short skirts.
Q: What should I wear to the party?
A: We will be changing into fun formal party dresses for the evening! Spaghetti straps are OK here!
