Volunteers raise the sukkah at Temple Israel; ceremonies set for Sunday, Oct. 8

A band of hardy volunteers collected last Sunday in the yard behind Temple Israel to raise the sukkah for Sukkot 5778.

Religious school students will decorate the sukkah Sunday, Oct. 8, when Herschel Chait will officiate ceremonies at 10:30 a.m.

Then-UHC Student Rabbi Aaron Rozovsky officiated Sukkot ceremonies during an outdoor service a year ago.
