Now that summer has arrived, it is time to get ready for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Rabbi Felipe Goodman,Rabbi Adam Watstein and Cantor Avraham Alpert are organizing and preparing for the services. Jon Mitzmacher, Jennifer Weiss and Jennifer Zukowski are organizing and preparing for youth services and children’s activities.Honors are being assigned, tickets will be printed and ushers are being appointed. Over the years, Temple BethSholom has developed our own local customs that have truly helped our services to be personal, rewarding andenjoyable. The following are reminders of some of these.

• Security, as always, remains an important concern. Please ensure that you, your family and yourguests have tickets and photo ID when arriving at services because they will be checked. Tickets arenon-transferable - there will be no admission to the building without a ticket . To park on property, a currentparking sticker must be displayed. Be advised that stickers will change in mid-August, 2009, so please be sureto obtain and mount the latest sticker on your vehicle.

• In the past, citations were issued by Metro for parking on side streets too close to residential driveways.Please park in the designated street sections if the parking lot is full. You can also park at an overflow lot to beannounced, with shuttle bus service from that lot to the Temple every 20 minutes.Additional handicapped parkingspots will be designated in our lot but, as always, it will be first come first served.

• Entrance to the sanctuary for services is only through the doors leading to the Social Halls. Please cooperatewith our ushers with respect to when you can enter. You will not be able to enter when the congregation isstanding for the Amidah, Hineni or when the Rabbis are giving a sermon. Call the office to volunteer to bean usher! 

• In consideration of all congregants, please avoid wearing strong perfume or cologne since many of our membershave severe allergic reactions to them. Please dress appropriately if you have an honor and will be on the Bima (noshort skirts for ladies and arms covered; jacket and collared shirt for men)

• Please limit talking during services and, if you must talk, please go outside the building. All cell phones must beOFF or on VIBRATE (if physician). There is no texting in the building on the High Holy Days.

• If you have an honor during the services, please RSVP in advance, arrive at least 30 minutes ahead of time andlet one of our honor distributors know you are present.

• Single strollers will be permitted, provided the parent selects an outside aisle seat in the social halls.

High Holy Day services at Temple Beth Sholom are truly a very special time for all of us. It is a wonderfulopportunity for our extended family to see and catch up with each other. More importantly, it is a time for us allto reflect on the past year and look to the future. Thank you in advance for helping us all enjoy this very specialtime of year. We sincerely hope that 5770 will be a happy and rewarding year for you, your families, and friendsand for Temple Beth Sholom.

Sincerely,
