Registration for High Holiday seats is open for all members. It is our intent, based on current CDC and state guidelines, to offer our Pre-Pandemic, business as usual seating this year.  We will continue to monitor CDC and State guidance with the hope that the situation will only continue to improve. Seat prices for members are unchanged from our 2019 pricing. To reserve seats, click here. To access a printable version of the High Holiday seating letter, click here.

Almost everyone who reserved seats for the High Holidays has responded to the survey. Of those who have responded, 100% of people who are eligible to receive the vaccine, have been vaccinated. ONLY children under 12 years of age, who are not eligible are unvaccinated. If you haven’t filled out the request for vaccination status, please do so. All those who don’t respond to the request will be required to be masked.
