The Lakewood Cheder today installed emergency phones in both their wedding halls – the Fountain Ballroom and Keser Moshe Yehuda.
The installation of the phones was due to the spotty cell phone service, as well as due to the fact that many guests are from out of town and don’t know Hatzolah’s number.
When lifting the phone, users will have the option to call Hatzolah or 911.
Many Shuls in the Lakewood area have installed these phones as well, primarily for use on Shabbos and Yom Tov.
