Along with the co-
Alter

The itinerary contin-
ues to be tweaked.
"We want each and every one to
come back with lasting memories,"
Alter said. "In planning travel and logis-
tics, we're listening carefully to the stat-
ed desires of the community, so that we
offer enough choices to please first-time
and veteran travelers to Israel alike."
"In addition to visiting the most
popular sites, we plan to add mean-
ingful experiences spending time to
volunteer in communities and interact
with Israelis. This is a people-to-peo-
ple mission."
Applications and reservations for the
mission are processed on a first-come,
first-served basis. Contact Sally Krugel,
