Installation is scheduled to start Monday, June 4. We expect the work to be completed prior to Shabbos, June 9. If you rent a Talis Box, please remove your possessions from your talis boxes by Sunday, June 3, so that the carpet installation can proceed below that unit. If you have any personal seforim in the pews, please remove them as well. Thank you for your cooperation.
