Hillel at Virginia Tech High Holidays 

For years our Hillel has served as a community gathering place during the High Holidays. We have had over a thousand individuals use our Center for services and dinners. We offer egalitarian services and opportunities for other ceremonies, such as tashlich. There are also beginner services available for those who are unfamiliar with the High Holiday services, but still want to participate. Free registration is required.
