The date is the 8-9 of January 2010 Parshat Shemot. We will travel by car to the Golani Junction. From there will be going on a guided tour (walking) about the &quot;Irgun Hashomer&quot;. Shabbat will be spent in the Har Tavor Hotel near kfar Tavor. In addition to the meals there will be lectures as well. Weather permitting, we will have a walking tour of Kfar Tavor instead of one of the lectures. The lecturer will be Mr. Chaim Mietless a noted military historian. We will be departing back to Rehovot on Saturday night. Price per couple is 690 NIS. There is a possibility of organizing transportation i.e. a bus but that would cost an additional 200-250 NIS per couple or maybe even more. This package deal is dependent on booking at least 22 rooms. For more information and to reserve your room please call David Drory at 08-931-5847 or email him at <a href="mailto:drorydr1@bezeqint.net">drorydr1@bezeqint.net</a>. </li> </ul> </td> </tr> <tr > <td style="direction: rtl" > <ul> <li>ÞØäÜê ÞàÕáÔ ÕÞáÕèÔ, Ð×èÐÙê ÕÐÞÙàÔ, âÝ ÔÞÜæÕê ×ÞÕê ÕàÙáÙÕß ÑÔÕèÐÔ, ÞâÕàÙÙàê ÜØäÜ ÑêÙàÕç ÑÑÙêÔ Ñè×&#39; ÒÕèÓÕß <span dir=ltr>33/1</span>, è×ÕÑÕê <span dir=ltr>08-9475711</span></li> </ul> </td> </tr> </table> </html>
