Partying in the Sukkah


Shalom,

This week is the end of the holiday of Sukkot, and we have a lot planned in the Hillel Sukkah in the next two days.  Just to remind you - the Hillel Sukkah is located on the south side of Mundelein Center.  If you walk or drive on Sheridan Road, you cannot miss the big, blue Hillel Sukkah!

We hope you can join us for some of our Sukkot programs!


MONDAY, OCTOBER 1 - IN THE HILLEL SUKKAH - SOUTH SIDE OF MUNDELEIN CENTER

11:30 AM - "PIZZA IN THE HUT" - Rabbi Zev Drutman will explain the traditions and rituals of the holiday of Sukkot.  And, we will serve pizza in the sukkah for lunch.

2:30 PM - "BABUSHKAS VISIT THE SUKKAH" - The Devon Sheridan Residence houses many Russian Jewish senior citizens - in Russian the term is "babushka."  In what has become a Hillel tradition, we invite these residents to the Hillel sukkah as guests for tea and traditional Russian sweets.  You do not have to be Russian to join in this wonderful volunteer program.


TUESDAY, OCTOBER 2 - IN THE HILLEL SUKKAH - SOUTH SIDE OF MUNDELEIN CENTER

Noon-4 PM - "HILLEL AT LOYOLA SUKKAH OPEN HOUSE" - Our yearly invitation to the campus at large to visit our sukkah and enjoy some apple cider and brownies.  Bring your friends and your teachers.

7-10 PM - "HOOKAH IN THE SUKKAH!!"  - What has become one of Hillel's biggest parties.  We turn the sukkah into a Mideastern hookah bar with Mideastern music, and we feast on delicious kosher BBQ food on the Mundelein Center Porch on the east side of the building.


WE HOPE TO SEE YOU IN THE HILLEL SUKKAH ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY!!
