Gush Katif on Yom HaAtzmaut

Dear Friends,

Thousands of people are heading to Gush Katif on Yom HaAtzmaut (Israeli Independence Day). The communities there have a huge event planned and I thought we should join them as well. This is a good opportunity to celebrate with Gush Katif, to see beautiful Israel, and to show solidarity with this special place. THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO GO!
I propose that we participate as an English speaking contingent made up of Kumah folks, new and veteran Olim, students and other assorted friends.

General Information: There will be buses to Gush Katif on Tuesday the Sixth of Iyar, 27th of April between 10:00am and 11:00am leaving from Binyanei Haumah (the International Convention Center) in Jerusalem across from the Tachan Merkazit (central bus station) and returning there at 7:30pm. The cost of the buses is 25 NIS round trip.

When will we meet: 10:20am, Tue 27th of April, at Binyanei Haumah - we will leave on one bus together at 10:45am.
What should I bring: 25NIS, some food (there will be concession stands in Gush Katif) and your good spirits.
Who is the contact person: Yishai Fleisher 050-356-263 - feel free to call.

Chag Sameach! I look forward to seeing you there.
