- 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 by August 25.
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.

You must check in with staff when dropping off your children. We ask you to register ahead of time so that we can prepare name tags for your children to help them feel welcome and to help us find you if necessary. Your child is welcome, however, even if you forget to pre-register. A challah, apple and juice snack will be served.
