dont think it’s legal yet but plenty are open

[mochjas]

My shul is starting to write some guidelines to hopefully open for Shavuot based on what Cuomo said:
No kids under 13 allowed and no women. We will use the ladies section to spread out the shul further... nothing is set in stone yet.

Interesting. Do they know something that the rest of us don’t yet? That’s the impression I’ve been getting among shul leaderships in general.

It was based on Cuomo who wasnt even talking about NYC but these days people only take a snipet and pass it around.....

Yes this is for Shavuot.

The RSVP is a good idea. Should do assigned seats too maybe.

I don't see it playing out how people hope though.

Allowing gatherings of up to 10 people makes it nearly impossible to make minyanim. You need at least a little leeway for the guy who wakes up late etc., 12 is doable but still difficult.

This is a start and very meaningful to me. It means that there is a chance that I can daven with a minyan again for the first time since the Monday after Purim.

The logistics may be difficult, but I am getting emotional thinking about benching Gomel for BH surviving Covid.

AYLOR to confirm that now is the right time before the entire thing passes.

I'm wondering if that could be solved with letting in the first ten people, and having an "overflow" crowd on the balcony or in another section with a physical barrier.

That can work if it's allowed.

That would be very dependent upon the floor plan and size combined with how many people you are looking to accomodate.

Obviously. But it would go a long way in places where that is possible.

You really think every backyard will be kept to strictly 10
