Apples and Honey in the Park
2026-09-13 09:00 - 10:00
Kol Dorot has graciously invited us to join their meaningful Tashlich service, a beautiful Rosh Hashanah tradition of symbolically “casting away sins” for a fresh start to the year. We will meet in the park, sing some children’s songs, listen to the shofar blow, and toss seeds into the pond as a way to honor this tradition. This is a family-friendly way to spend the second day of Rosh Hashanah together.

Following the brief program, enjoy a snack of delicious apples and honey with J on the Go.
