NSSRA Under Contract to Purchase Highland
Park Synagogue as New Recreation Facility
After close to a decade of planning, preparing and searching, we are excited
to share that NSSRA is in the final stages of securing our new permanent
home, Lakeside Congregation in Highland Park.
Lakeside Congegration put their facility on the market last November in
preparation for its merger with Congregation Solel, also in Highland Park,
this summer. The property is in a great location, central to our communities,
and will be a wonderful asset for NSSRA participants and programs.

NSSRA participants. This is a golden opportunity to create a permanent home for NSSRA for years to come, and we are going to need
your support to make it happen. Stay tuned throughout the year for updates from NSSRA and NSSRA Foundation on how you can be
