It is a longtime Jewish tradition for Jews to immerse in the mikvah (ritual bath) before the High Holy Days of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. It’s also remarkably spiritual and quite refreshing! As we begin the process of introspection, join us for this sacred immersion. This year we’ll be having both a women’s and a men’s gathering at different beaches in the same area. 

Please register below to let us know if you will be joining us.
