(Tikvat will have the regular Shabbat Torah Service at 10:30 on the 8th which is also Shabbat Rosh Chodesh however Chanukah starts at sundown so the Oneg will follow the evening service.)
Setup teams arrive early, before service, to set up tables and chairs. Setup teams also assist the hospitality team in dressing the tables and distributing the food.
Cleanup teams stay after they have eaten and return clean tables and chairs to the storage closet and assist the hospitality team in kitchen cleanup.
Everyone is responsible for cleaning up after themselves.

Oneg is a joyful time of sharing Shabbat with one another. To insure that everyone has a delightful time with something to eat, please follow these procedures:
- After service, enter the fellowship hall and have a seat until directed to serve yourself.
- No food or drink service is permitted until after the blessing and instructions.
- The hospitality team or designated others will serve those who are not able to serve themselves.
- Special guests and first time visitors are invited to go first.
- Be considerate of others and do not pile your plate with food. This avoids spills and also insures that there is enough for everyone.
- Parents please serve your children, especially the little ones.
- Clean up after yourself and discard your plates and utensils.
