ECDP has been able to obtain these belts for members to borrow, as needed, for example, when walking home from Shul Motzei Shabbat. They will be located in a bin in the closet on the Sprague side entrance. We ask that you please return them at your earliest convenience so that the next member in need can make use of them. Thank you.
