"I felt a need and desire to go to Israel because of my level of commitment at home with the Young Adult Division." Leader is a member of the YAD board. "It was a perfect blend of history, religion, social interaction and playing, " Frankel added. Despite the energy exhibited by the group, many were not adverse to paying attention • to the guide, according to Richard Broder, 26. "Everybody liked being bossed around. Everybody on our bus listened and participated," the management company vice president recalled. Broder had been to Israel previously, but made some new discoveries on this trip. The best part of the tour, he said, was "watching people getting turned on to Israel." Perlman offered that most people come to Israel with pre-conceived notions, that the landscape is filled with ruins. "People are not prepared for haw modern and green it is." He said he thought "we would be overwhelmed with Judaism and religion" but was surprised "how the country can touch you. It makes you proud to be a Jew." None of the four had any real complaints. They all criticized the food, but the real disappointment came in what they were unable to see or do confined to such a tight schedule. Because of time constraints, most of the group did not really have an opportunity to get to know any Israelis. For Leader, he had hoped to see institutions dealing with high technology as well as .agricultural advances. But, he said, he is not dismayed. "It makes me look forward to the next time." Leader's sentiments were echoed by Broder, Frankel and Perlman. Asked if they would return to Israel, all answered "of course" and "definitely?' Despite not being able to meet their Israeli counterparts, the group still found the trip valuable on other scores. "It's good for meeting other Jews," Leader offered. Looking at their single counterparts, the Detroiters found many differences between the two groups. Israelis grow up faster, the military is a significant part of their lives, they don't have much spare time and they like disco music, much to the distaste of the Americans. Compared with Americans, according to Broder, the Israelis "work hard and play hard:' Most of the Americans found the Israelis to be hospitable. Other members of the Detroit mission were Richard Blumenstein Ronald Fry, Rebecca Goldbaum, Lawrence Handler, Cheryl Iwrey, Louise Lessing, Franci Podolsky, The best part of the tour was "watching people getting turned on to Israel." Deborah Schwartz and Sylvia Sherman. Cost of the trip was paid by the participants. Would any of the group encourage other singles to visit Israel? You bet. Or, as Steve Perlman put it, "It's the obligation of every Jew to visit Israel. It's difficult to express what the trip is like. You've got to go to believe it. It's something you'll remember the rest of your life." ❑ Singles Paper Makes Debut Tampa, Fla.
