President's Message
August 2021

I would like to thank you all for your patience and support as we navigate a return toward normalcy. The health and safety of our members is our first priority, and we’ve moved cautiously in reopening the synagogue for services. At this point, the executive committee has decided to follow current CDC guidelines with respect to in-house services (including High Holy Day services). Because the situation can change rapidly, please consult the Temple website in the days immediately before attending any in-person events for information on our specific policies regarding masking and distancing. Registration for in-person events via SignUpGenius is still required, to provide us with a list of attendees if there is a need for contact tracing. Most services will continue to be available via Zoom for those who do not wish to attend in person. 

Temple clergy, leadership, and staff have been busy preparing for the High Holy Days. You can find schedule details and sign-up and Zoom registration links elsewhere in this bulletin. High Holy Day information will also be available on our website and distributed via email. 

My door has always been open to members with questions, concerns, or suggestions about Temple decision-making. When possible, I like to have these discussions in person, and with that in mind, both Jennifer Lampron (1st vice president) and I will be available on Sunday mornings during religious school hours to meet with you. I hope you will take advantage of the opportunity to find out what is going on at the temple and how you can be involved.
​
Enjoy the rest of your summer.
Loren H. Goldstein
President
