Sukkot: Celebrate the Bounty of Our Lives

Decorate the Sukkah
Tuesday, September 21, 2010 • 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Sukkot offers a potpourri of tastes, smells, touches, and sights that all take place in the sukkah. The joy of Sukkot becomes an even more meaningful experience when you join the Temple community in helping to create and decorate the Temple's beautiful sukkah. Bring your friends or make new ones.
