Sukkot Activities

SUKKOT BEGINS THIS YEAR ON FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10th

The Jewish holidays always seem to come too quickly no matter what time of year it is! Sukkot begins just 4 days after Yom Kippur. Let us here at Temple Aliyah help you plan so your family won't be caught unaware! Here’s how:

  • Purchase a lulav and etrog for Sukkot! Assemble your own at our “Make a Lulav Shake” program on Thursday, October 9 from 6:30 - 7:30 p.m. or order a pre-assembled set. Click here for more information.
  • Decide this is the year to purchase and put up your own Sukkah for Sukkot! There are many easy to assemble sukkah kits available locally or over the web (Call or e-mail Terri Swartz Russell for more information, check out ads online or in the Jewish Advocate or Moment magazine or visit the Israel Book Shop in Brookline.)
  • Please do let us know if you are putting up a sukkah this year.
    Each year we publicize a list of all those who have a sukkah at home. If you put up a sukkah be sure your name will be included in our list of “Sukkah Builders 5764.” 
    Call the office and leave a message for Terri or e-mail: terri@templealiyah.com.

Plan now to attend Sukkot services on Saturday and Sunday, October 11 & 12!
