Sukkot (also spelled Succoth or Sukkos) is a lesser known Jewish festival that generally occurs in October and is commonly known as the Season of our Rejoicing. It will be celebrated Sunday (Oct. 7) at the River Oaks Community Centre. Sukkot commemorates the 40-year period that Moses and his followers wandered in the desert and lived in temporary shelters. The word Sukkot is the plural of sukkah, which means huts or booths. During the seven days of the festival, Jews are commanded to dwell in sukkot. Most fulfill the requirement by eating all their meals there. Generally, building a sukkah is a family project; once the structure is ready, children decorate it Sukkot available Sunday 19 · Friday, October 5, 2012 OAKVILLE BEAVER · www.insideHALTON.com with fruits and flowers of the season including dried squash, stalks of corn, bunches of grapes, painted pumpkins and berries. For those who can't dwell in a sukkah, the Chabad Jewish Discovery Centre will be setting up a mobile sukkah and parking it at the River Oaks Community Centre on Sunday from 10:30-11:30 a.m. All are welcomed into the sukkah on the back of a truck, where there will be goodies to eat and volunteers to help demonstrate how and what to do. A special craft will be set up for the children. For information or to RSVP, contact info@ JewishOakville.com or 905-268-4432. Fashions NO TAX EVENT!
