Friday, 3:00pm – The eruv is kosher.

Confirmed directly from Rabbi Dick and Mrs. Berkowitz.

Baruch Hashem the Eruv has been repaired and is UP and functional.

We want to express our thanks to the Illuminating Company and First Energy,

Rabbi Dick and Rabbi Grunwald for expediting this major repair in this inclement weather.

We felt it was necessary to advise everyone of the situation because of the severity of the

damage and because of the uncertainty of the timeline in getting it repaired.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Thursday, 6:45pm – I just spoke to Rabbi Yonah Dick of the Cleveland Eruv Society. The eruv is currently NOT kosher. Further, there is a good chance it will NOT be fixed in time for Shabbos.

However, up until 5pm the status can change since that’s when the repair crews will stop working. Rabbi Dick will be posting an update at or around that time on the Eruv Hotline at 216-586-9222. LJN will also be sending out a special email at or around that time.
