A Note About Sukkot Youth Programming: Davening on Sukkot is an immersive, engaging and special experience. We would really like to encourage parents to bring their children to shul by 9:40am in order to recite Hallel with Lulav and Etrog followed by Hoshanot as we encircle the Torah as a community. This is a really formidable shul experience in our children's religious development that creates lasting memories and connection to Jewish life and ritual. Regular groups will then follow for the children at 10:15am
