We are having our annual Havdalah celebration, and this year, unlike last year, we will be meeting IN PERSON! The place is Compo Beach, for which we have obtained a certificate to meet – further directions will follow as to exactly where people should go. You won’t need a sticker – just say you are a member of CHJ. Bring your own dinner – dessert and drinks will be provided. Also bring a lawn chair. We will have a short service, some delicious socializing, and a moonlit walk on the beach.
This is open to the public. If you are not a member of CHJ, please register by completing the form below.
Rain date: August 21.
