4. Masks are required (The Song Shul will provide masks for all in attendance).
5. Hand sanitizing stations will be available throughout the venue.
6. The washrooms will be traffic-controlled and sanitized after usage, and a cleaning plan for high-touch areas is in place.
7. We know you love to schmooze, but there’s no close mingling allowed before or after services.
What about the shofar?
In addition to hearing the shofar during the 2nd day service, The Song Shul will have a special outdoor Shofar-Blowing on Sunday, September 20th. Feel free to join us outside of the Meridian Arts Centre at 12:45 PM. (The service finishes at 12:30 but we allow time for people to exit carefully.) The shofar is loud so you can easily hear the blasts even while keeping your distance.What about the machzor?
If you have your own prayer book, please bring it. We will also have copies of the Silverman machzor available at each service for 1-day use. There is no chance that what you touch will have been used by someone else the previous day.So how do I register?
