YOUR INFORMATION

Only one registration needed per household.  

Member Adults
Note:  If there are two adult members in your household, please include both names.  Please use the same email address that you use for Beth Emet communications to ensure that we capture the correct information.






GUEST CONTACT INFORMATION









Name badges serve as a way to know each other's names and as your ticket. Lanyards will be available to pick up when you arrive for services.  


Name badge inserts (tickets) will be available for pickup to guests and members in good standing. To receive your badges, you must pay at least 25% of your total membership commitment or have a payment plan in place, as well as have paid past balances.  Beth Emet does not turn anyone away from services who is not in a position to pay. If you need to make financial arrangements, please contact Allan Bogan.  


Please note: name badge inserts will not be mailed to your home.  


1. All members in good standing may pick up badges in the front office at these times:

Friday, Sept 4, 12:00-6:30 pm Saturday, Sept. 5, 9:00 am-12:00 pm and 6:00-9:00 pm Tuesday, Sept. 8 through Thursday, Sept. 10, 9:00 am-7:30 pm

2. Any badges not picked up before September 10 may be picked up at the will-call table at services.  


Please also consider donation opportunities for the High Holy Days as an important way to live our values while ensuring that we can defray the costs associated with the holidays. 


REQUEST NAME BADGES


Each of the holiday services will be offered both in-person as well as virtually. For a complete listing of services please check our website.   
In-Person Participation
Please note:  A name badge is valid for any service; there is no need to request service times.  Requests can be made for additional inserts for adult children and guests.  College students (not members of your household) may present a valid school ID in lieu of an insert. If someone else will be using your name badge insert, let us know so we can print the correct name. The names on the inserts are the names of the adult members of your household. 

Additional Member Guest(s) Attending (Adults Ages 23+)
To request a name badge for adult children, family members who do not live with you or for non-member guests, please complete the fields below. We hope you will consider a donation of $125 (per guest) or an amount that feels appropriate for name badges, or $87 for a virtual link (for the new year 5787). See donation opportunities below.

SPECIAL NEEDS


CHILDCARE

Childcare is not fee-based, but we encourage optional donations to offset the cost. We will contact you about what to bring for childcare, such as extra clothing, packed meal, etc.


DONATION OPPORTUNITIES

We rely on the generosity of our members to support our High Holy Day worship services and programs. Our goal is to raise $50,000 which will allow us to continue to offer hybrid technology and other ways to ensure that our holiday participation is meaningful, secure, and beautiful. And while non-member tickets were a significant source of revenue pre-pandemic, we are now providing the opportunity for guests to access the High Holy Days with a suggested donation. Your support helps to defray these significant costs.

GUEST DONATION OPPORTUNITIES

We extend an invitation to the larger community to worship with us, and while we do not charge $250 per ticket for non-members as we did pre-pandemic, we do provide the opportunity for all our guests to access the High Holy Days with a suggested donation. Please consider a donation as your way to support the community and help us cover the expenses that we incur to provide worship services and programs. Please note that your contribution will be applied towards a first-year introductory membership, should you choose to join. Our goal this year is to raise $50,000, which will allow us to continue to offer hybrid technology and ensure that our holiday participation is meaningful, secure, and beautiful. We can make this possible through your generous support, which allows us to open and expand our home to those such as yourself who wish to be a part of our community.

YIZKOR (Memorial) BOOK
The coming High Holy Day season brings with it memories of families and friends praying together, past joys, and the sadness of recalling those loved ones who are no longer with us. If you have never included names of loved ones to honor their memory, you can do so below.  If you wish to renew prior listings or add additional names, please contact the office, and they can follow up.
