[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also- you can participate in nearly all aspects of synagogue life without being a dues-paying member. The only things you need to join are for high holy day services and religious school. You can check out a Tot Shabbat or any of the holiday events for free (or a nominal fee, if the temple charges one, for the Purim carnival, Hanukkah party, etc.). [/quote] You can and should do this if you are legitimately trying out the synagogue and trying to figure out if it is the right place for you. But you really shouldn't do this extensively or for a terribly long time period. As others have said, funds are needed to operate the building, pay staff, and run programs. If you can't pay or can't pay full, most places will work with you - as they should. But if you just want to freeload for years on end, it really isn't right, although you probably could get away with it at a lot of places before someone would realize and/say something.[/quote]
