Summary |
Next time you visit BCRC, you will see the latest security improvements which will help to protect our building against any potential threat. Pictured here are our new security rated doors. While they present a welcoming appearance that is consistent with our new architectural master plan, the wood grain conceals thick galvanized steel and shatterproof glass which make them difficult for an intruder to penetrate. These doors will be electronically set to lock upon direction from a central controller.
Temple members will soon be set up with access to enter using our new Open Path access control system. The smart reader pictured here is mounted at the entry, and once you install the Open Path app all you need to do is walk up to the entrance and wave, and the door will unlock for you. You can also request smart card access. Non members will utilize our new video doorbell system to request entry. Using this system, our building will be protected against unauthorized entry at all hours. Still more improvements to come - we'll keep you posted.

Announcing Sanctuary & Social Renewal Sprint 2
Our goal is to raise $50,000 by June 30 to build a spiritual Jerusalem stone wall backdrop integrated with the bimah, with recessed lighting and built-in space for a permanent ark.We plan to have the sanctuary construction done during the summer so that we can be ready for the High Holy Days. We thank everyone who has donated to our earlier phase.
Above you can see a rendering of these exciting plans (place holders for ark and furniture). Along with the movable wall and new seating these changes will begin to give our sanctuary the feel of a permanent worship space. Click here to read full details on the project.
