Sukkah Bar Night

T

he crisp fall air crackled with energy and conversation on
Oct.15 as more than 100 young adults mingled inside the
sukkah at Congregation Shaarey Zedek in Southfield.

The second-annual "Sukkah Bar Night" not only gave the group of 20-
and 30-somethings a chance to socialize, but also to do a mitzvah while
having a good time. "During the holiday of Sukkot, it's considered a
mitzvah to 'dwell' in a sukkah," said Alaine Waldshan, a community
development associate with the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan
Detroit.
.
Some of the sukkah dwellers spotted under the stars included:
Federation's Young Adult Division President Amy Carson Schlussel,
Rabbi Jonathan Berkun, Laura Hirschhorn, Brad "Bubba" Urdan, Scott
Kaufman, Rabbi Joseph Krakoff, Jeremy Crane and Julie Eisman.
For some, having a bite to eat and schmooze with friends in the sukkah
was nostalgic. "It reminds me of my childhood," said Miriam Kruger. It
also brought back memories for Phil Okun. "I haven't been in this
sukkah since I was in high school," he said. "I love the harvest, and I
think it's a neat tradition." El
