Marcie, it's the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, that begins the evening of Oct. 3 for all of our members and friends who observe the Jewish traditions. It runs for a 10 day period, ending with the Yom Kippur Day of Atonement on Oct. 13. I echo Mrs. Moose - if it's an incorrect explanation, please educate us by correcting this summary.
Enjoy a happy New Year, Judith and others, and have an easy fast on Yom Kippur. Cheers, Anne
