**Have you ever wanted to celebrate Sukkot in the wilderness?** On October 1,
we invite you to join us with **Rabbi Dini Lewittes** for an afternoon of
hiking, reflection, and dining among the Laurentian Mountains.

Otherwise known as the Jewish fall harvest festival, Sukkot is a time to
appreciate the gifts of our natural world, especially in a time of
intensifying climate crisis. In Rabbi Lewittes’ home, guests will be invited
to take part in a guided mindfulness hike, spirited reflections, craft-based
rituals, and lunch in the Sukkah overlooking beautiful Lake Manitou.

Rabbi Lewittes’ home is located in the Laurentians, approximately 60-75
minutes by car from Montreal. Following registration, guests will receive an
email with Rabbi Lewittes’ address.

We will not be providing transportation to the event site, however we will do
our best to facilitate carpools for those who do not have a car or cannot find
a carpool on their own. **If you do not have access to a car** , please fill
out the registration questions accordingly. **If you are able to make room in
your car for additional passengers** , please fill out the registration
questions accordingly. We thank everyone in advance for making room in their
vehicles to share this afternoon together.
