Dear Matan,
KJ is looking forward to the upcoming holidays, when thousands of members of our community unite together as one congregational family. Our office stands ready to help the entire KJ Family with tickets and reservations. Because the clicks in this email are unique and personalized to you alone, please do not forward or share it with others.
Sukkot is a very special holiday at KJ, and we want to ensure that everyone is properly prepared. Please disregard this universal reminder email if you have already taken care of Sukkot business and you received a confirmation email to indicate that we have your order. We are sending this reminder to everyone to ensure that no one overlooks Sukkot.
Lulav and Etrog: Purchase here. We will accept orders until 10:00 am this Thursday, October 10. Lulav and Etrog sets will be available for pick-up at KJ on Saturday night, October 12, from 8:00 - 9:30 pm, and on Sunday, October 13, from 9:30 am - 12:00 noon.
KJ Beginners Sukkah Dinner Under the Stars: RSVP here. Join us for a joyous and delicious evening in the Sukkah featuring a wine tasting, live jazz, and holiday spirit. Thursday, October 17, at 7:00 pm | 125 East 85th Street.
Sukkah Meal Reservations: We are excited to be welcoming 4,500 people to catered and "bring-your-own-food" meals in the KJ sukkot. Please review the following instructions before completing the Order Form that appears at the bottom of this email:
1. Reserve only on a full size P.C. or MAC computer. Do not use your phone because it does not support the program well.
2. Because you cannot make changes after clicking SUBMIT, please take your time coordinating all your meals offline, before submitting a reservation. Reservations are due by 10:00 am this Thursday, October 10.
3. Meals the first night of Sukkot will be served on 78 Street and on 85 Street (the location is your choice, until we reach capacity). The other five catered sukkah meals will be served at 85 Street only.
4. If you want to make sure that you and your friends are all at the same table, then become what we call a TABLE CAPTAIN. It's very simple: You buy the whole table, and your friends pay you back. Click here for instructions.
5. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate strollers in our crowded sukkot. For the safety of our sukkah guests, if an infant is sleeping in his/her stroller, we ask that they be watched outside the sukkah or held by a parent. Children for whom a reservation has been made may sit on a booster seat brought from home, or on a parent's lap in the absence of a reservation.
6. Bring-Your-Own-Food guests are welcome to reserve online - free of charge - specially designated sukkot for all holiday meals except the packed first night on October 13. Please use our all-in-one online form to reserve space. People who wish to bring their own food on that first night should click here to have our staff assist you.
We ask for your patience and understanding as we do our best to make this the best holiday season ever!
