The cost is $25 per adult, $15 per child, and $180 per sponsor. Instead of partying at the Synagogue Sukkah, Chabad of NW Bergen County has taken the party mobile this holiday with a Sukkah on wheels. The mobile Sukkah will visit homes in the Wyckoff and Franklin Lakes area on Sept. 26 and 27 ready with a nosh and an activity for a 20-minute party. Reservations are necessary. To host your own Sukkah party, simply invite some friends and call Chabad to reserve a time-slot. There is no charge for the visit, but residents are requested to guarantee 10 people for the party. The eight-day, Jewish holiday of Sukkot is an annual celebration in the fall season which commemorates the harvest and the Biblical sojourn in the Sinai desert. Holiday traditions center on a leaf-covered outdoor hut called a “Sukkah,” where families eat their meals and spend their leisure time. To reserve a party, call Rabbi Kaplan at (201) 848-0449.
