LA Aish HaTorah Community

A message from Howard Witkin with the LA Eruv:

I just completed a walk through the problematic construction segment with

the project managers and field supervisors for the contractors building the

405.

We will not be able to make repairs to the eruv for this Shabbos.  We hope

to have a workaround for next week, but the next three weeks will be

problematic

as the contractor rushes to finish new and demolish old bridges at

Wilshire.  We'll keep you posted.

The eruv always runs short of funds in weeks leading up to Rosh Hashanah.

This year we are especially short because of the extraordinary expenses of

repairs every week

as we coordinate with the freeway construction.  We will need at least an

additional 10k to get through the summer and keep the Eruv up.

We are hoping that next year will be easier as several shuls step up their

support for the eruv and the community it serves.
