Simchas Bais Hashoeivah 5782
The Yeshiva’s Simchas Bais Hashoeva took place on Thursday night, the second night of Chol Hamoed. Several changes were implemented this year, both due to Covid-19 restrictions, as well as to regulate the overwhelming number of people who are attracted to the Yeshiva’s Simchas Bais Hashoeva. Instead of gathering in the sukkah, the program began early in the evening with dancing in the Bais Medrash with the Roshei Yeshiva, Rabbeim, and hanhallah. This allowed for a much smoother entrance and eliminated having a mass crowd at one moment. The dancing lasted until midnight, followed by a kumzitz with the Rosh Hayeshiva and Mashgiach. When the kumzitz was over, the dancing began again – ending at about 1:15 AM with spirited, hopeful singing of L’shana Haba’ah B’Yerushalayim.
