The Woodridge Kehilla is pleased to announce the completion on the first phase of the Woodridge Eiruv – the first of its kind in Sullivan County history!

After many years being bogged down in local politics, Rabbi Hillel Grossman has accomplished what has eluded the Woodridge Kehila for some time. The Rav asked that the Tzibur please acquaint themselves with the attached PDF. Some areas of Woodridge have only portions covered and one needs to be aware of this.

The eiruv which is a project of Congregation Ohave Shalom will be maintained year round for the community.

To ensure before Shabbos that the Eruv is up call: 1-877-420-ERUV (3788)
