Learn to Sound the Shofar—or Practice Your Skills!
New and returning members of the Temple Beth Shalom Shofar Corps are invited to help to fulfill the mitzvah of sounding the shofar for our congregation. New sounders are welcome, we have shofrot to borrow. All who intend to sound shofar during the High Holy Days must be excited to participate, be a member in good standing, attend at least one rehearsal or make arrangements with Rabbi Eger, and commit to sounding the shofar at least one time during worship on the High Holy Days. We need sounders on September 13, 7 p.m., at Selichot, Erev Rosh Hashanah on Sept. 22, Tot Service, Family, and Late service on Rosh Hashanah, Sept. 23, and Tot on Yom Kippur Morning and Neilah on Yom Kippur, Oct. 2.
