Tickets will be mailed to members who have paid their calendar 2010 dues and all other outstanding charges to the synagogue.  Tickets may be used at both the main sanctuary service and the family service.  Please note:

  • Family membership entitles you to two tickets for adults and tickets for all dependent children.
     
  • Single membership entitles you to a ticket for one adult and tickets for all dependent children.
     
  • The Congregation provides free high holiday tickets for students.  Contact the office in advance at 773.752.2770 to arrange for a complimentary student ticket.
     
  • Guest tickets for the main sanctuary and/or family service are $150 for family members of congregants and $225 for your friends.  If they subsequently decide to join the Congregation, these amounts will be credited toward their 2011 dues.  Please request guest tickets immediately; payment in full is required.

Each ticket will be marked with your name.  Please have your tickets ready to show when you enter the building.  Board members will greet you at the door and will also ask to see the tickets for each family member.  In addition, please bring personal identification, such as a driver's license, and be prepared to show it should circumstances require security measures that extend beyond the personalized tickets.
