High Holiday Seating
Rosh Hashanah is just around the corner! All full members of NHBZ are entitled to request a reserved seat for the High Holidays, to come and go as much as needed.
If you had a reserved seat last year and are happy with it, you are good to go! If you were not entirely happy with your seat last year (too noisy? too cold? too close to the front?) you can request a change! If you are a new member and you want a reserved seat, we can help you pick one to your liking. Please contact Lenny Alper at lenny.alper@outlook.com to review your seating options or contact Devorah at office@nhbz.org. Deadline to reserve seats: Monday, September 8.
Yizkor Book of Remembrance
Watch your mail for information about this year’s Yizkor Book. As in the past, we will request a $10 donation for each name listed (or group, such as “and family”) in the published Book of Remembrance, and an additional $36 donation for each name read aloud during Yizkor. The Book of Remembrance is used on Yizkor throughout the year for Yom Kippur, Shemini Atzeres, Pesach, and Shavuos. Deadline to submit Yizkor names: Friday, September 5.
