As endorsed by area Rabbis, 30 shofar blasts will be sounded.

We will blow shofar in light rain but will cancel in case of dangerous weather (lightning, strong winds). Note that shofar blowing at the KMS and Chabad locations will be under cover.

As these sessions could result in a number of people congregating in a relatively small area, mask wearing is encouraged.
