Israel Regional

[Galum]

I'd like to join Nir and congratulate and thank you for joining the Israeli Regional, I'm sure you'll be a great addition and I hope you'll enjoy your time with us.

Did you make any kind of arrangements for your stay? How long do you intend to be in Israel? I assume you'll come before the regional starts and tour around a bit, right? If you'd like we can find you a team over here to host you, I know several schools are boarding schools and have the room for it. If you need anything, you can always drop me a line and I'll try to fix you up ;-)

Also, I'd recommend you follow FIRST Israel on Twitter and Facebook. FIRST Israel is pretty unique community wise do to the distance from everyone else, following us on Facebook and Twitter might give you a better glance at how we operate over here ;-)

We will be in Israel 13 days. We will arrive early enough to help local teams setup.

For the days od the competition we will be staying in local homes. Alisha and one ofour mentors is handling that. Alisha has been great.

We plan to tour till we drop. last Thursday night was the first of the classes the team is attending. It was about the history of Israel from Abraham to Christ. The classes are taught by our Jewish mentor.
