Dear Friends:

 

Here is the new date for the YJC Mission to Israel  

Depart: Sunday, December 8th, 2013

Return:  Friday, December 20th, 2013

 

Our first meeting will be on June 17th at 7:30pm

 

This date has now been accepted as firm, and, I am arranging with our highly experienced tour operator, Keshet Tours, to draw up an itinerary. The trip will include sites essential for first time visitors, as well as appropriate for seasoned Israel travelers.

 

That is the good news. The better news is that the change will not add anything to the cost of the trip, and, I am working with Keshet to bring the cost closely in line with the low end of our original estimate of 4000 to 4400 dollars per person -

all expenses included. We will not sacrifice comfort or safety, but, rather, enjoy several advantages in our favor.

 

By next week, I expect to have all the relevant 

information that we need to move forward, including firm pricing, well developed itinerary, and a date for our first meeting with our tour operator.

 

Please mark your calendar to join me as we venture together to Eretz Yisrael!
