Question
Is it possible to take down a Sukkah over Chol Hamoed? I am trying to arrange one for my school, but I may need to take it down after a few days because half term starts in the middle of Chol Hamoed. Should I take it down during Chol Hamoed or should I leave it there with the possibility that it may be destroyed?
Answer
You may take in down if you are concerned it will be destroyed.
