High Holiday Permanent Seats Available

High Holidays 2016 are quickly approaching and we wanted to advise our congregants about permanent seat availability. Permanent seat ownership guarantees that you will have the same seats every year for the High Holidays when you purchase High Holiday tickets. The purchase of these permanent seats also establishes a physical presence between our member families and the sanctuary. In response to this past High Holydays’ inspiring services, we have had some recent requests for permanent seats and we want to make the congregation aware that these seats can be purchased at any time. The price of each new seat is $1,250 and, depending on the number of seats purchased, you can be billed over one or two years. As always, you do not need to own permanent seats in order to buy seats for the holidays. If you would like to discuss the purchase of seats, please call the Temple office.
