The 8th annual Tour de Shuls CT will be held on Sunday, October 5th, 2025. We took a break and now we are back in action in 2025. This year’s tour will have 2 bike routes, the 25 mile route will be starting and finishing at The Emanuel Synagogue in West Hartford CT and a 10 mile bike route (5K Run/Walk) will start and finish at Temple Sinai in Newington, CT. More than simply a bike ride, Tour de Shuls is a community event to support Camp Ramah’s Tikvah and Camp Eisner’s Chazak programs. These programs serve Jewish children with physical and cognitive disabilities. Participating in the Tour enables these campers to experience the joys and camaraderie of Jewish summer camp – swimming, soccer, arts & crafts, singing around the campfire, and celebrating Shabbat, by providing scholarships to defray the costs of attending camp. Ride with us individually, as a family or with a group of friends. All levels of riders are welcome. Registration is $54 for adults. For teens and children ages 18 and under, the registration fee is $36. The fee is capped at $126 per family. The registration fee will be waived for any individual who raises and collects at least $180 in contributions.
