Temple Sholom in Greenwich celebrated the festival of Sukkot with a number of congregational activities. Temple Sholom kicked off the holiday festivities with a family sukkah decorating extravaganza where children and adults alike created hand-made decorations for the Sukkah including a very long paper chain, made edible Sukkot from graham crackers and candies, and enjoyed lunch together as a community. During the week of Sukkot, Rabbi Mitchell M. Hurvitz met with the Selma Maisel Nursery School children to teach them about the holiday. The children also got to shake the lulav and etrog, symbols of the holiday. Temple Sholom Religious School children also enjoyed a visit to the Sukkah with Cantor Asa Fradkin leading them in a musical celebration.
