The Congregation Sons of Israel campus includes a beautiful, recently renovated mikvah, as well as an easily accessed keilim mikvah. The east side of Cherry Hill is about a 15-minute drive away where establishments such as the Katz JCC, Torah Links, and Chabad are located. There are several kosher eateries in and around Cherry Hill, with more a short distance away in Philadelphia.
