Tashlich & Reverse Tashlich

Join us for Tashlich followed by a community-wide Reverse Tashlich river cleanup.

Or Hadash will participate through the organization Adamah, by cleaning up part of the Mason Mill Park riverfront.

Tashlich is a Rosh Hashanah ritual in which Jews begin the new year by symbolically casting off last year's sins by  tossing pebbles or bread crumbs into a  body of water. In 2016, the college division of Repair the Sea (Scubi Jew®) at Eckerd College conceived the idea of hosting a Reverse Tashlich: a beach cleanup to remove human "sins" from the water. Every year since, Reverse Tashlich has expanded as new communities have joined and removed thousands of pounds of debris from waterfront locations around the world as part of their High Holiday observance. Last year over 3000 participants from 245 communities in 12 countries joined the initiative.

Location:

Mason Mill Park

1406 McConnell Drive, Decatur, Georgia

Sign up required on Adamah's website HERE to join at this location. 

Note: While there is a wheelchair friendly path along the creek, the creek is not accessible to those with limited mobility.

Great for all ages and stages!
