 Imagine
Friday night Shabbat Services on the summit of
Flagstaff Mountain. Our 6 p.m. service is held
at the Sunrise Amphitheater with panoramic views
of the City of Boulder. Join us for an unforgettable Shabbat, surrounded
by fragrant trees, red-rock, great company and song.
Then, at 7 p.m., join us for a picnic at
the Stone Shelter picnic area, located just across the
parking lot.
Bring your family and friends or come alone.
No hiking involved! All ages welcome. The song-filled service will
be less than forty-five minutes.
 After
services, join us for a picnic dinner. Please bring
your own picnic dinner and table cloth. No alcoholic beverages permitted.

pouring at 5:55 p.m. and stopped exactly at 6 p.m., just in time
for us to have the service. Could it be true that we have a direct
line to above? If in doubt, assume the service is on!
