BZBI Health and Safety High Holiday Guidelines
We look forward to welcoming everyone back to BZBI in the safest and most accessible ways possible. When planning for the quickly approaching High Holy Day season we are prioritizing the health and safety of all our community members. Barring any drastic changes in COVID-19 infection rates over the next months, we will return to BZBI for in-person services on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
Register here for the upcoming Community Wide Town Hall, to be held on Tuesday August 3 from 7:30-8:30 PM. We plan to answer all your questions and provide you with the most up-to-date information.
In addition to following all CDC and local guidelines, our goal of maximizing the number of members who can safely attend High Holy Day services in person requires us to implement the following policies:
- All who attend in person services over the age of 12 must be fully vaccinated. An exception will be made for those under 12 who will be allowed to attend without vaccination.
- Those over 2 must be masked at all times while in the building, with the exception of specific individuals on the Bimah.
- Anyone who is medically unable to be vaccinated or immunocompromised should participate in services via Zoom, not in person. We are committed to providing a quality Zoom experience for anyone who cannot attend in person.
- We urge anyone 12 or older who has not yet done so to get vaccinated as soon as possible.
- Should the situation with COVID-19 change dramatically, we will of course need to adjust our plans.
