Posted by Lauren Gold on 08/31/2023 @ 01:34 PM
Sunday, September 10, 9-11 AM
A family-friendly morning program on the Miami Beach JCC Sol Stern Dock using the kayaks and canoes of the Mariner Program to help keep the Indian Creek Waterway clean in a pre-High Holiday – Reverse Tashlich. A donation of $18 per person is suggested (children under 12 are free). MBJCC Lifeguards will be present. Refreshments will be served!
A portion of the proceeds support the MBJCC Mariners program and Clean Miami Beach, a non-profit dedicated to clean beaches water and ending single-use plastics. They will be on hand to assist with nets, grabbers, buckets and other equipment.
What is a Reverse Tashlich? Sponsored by the Jewish organization Tikkun HaYam - Repair the Sea, the Reverse Tashlich program, conducted worldwide, reimagines the High Holiday Tashlich ceremony of symbolically casting away sins into water. The symbolism is reversed: participants come together to clean up waterways that impact our lives, fostering a spiritual connection to and stewardship for the environment.
Location: Miami Beach JCC, 4221 Pine Tree Drive, Miami Beach
