I am forwarding a post from Miri Pomerantz of the Jewish Book Council regarding an upcoming Israel trip:
>>The Jewish Book Council is partnering with Taglit-birthright israel: Mayanot to offer the Taglit-birthright Israel Mayanot/Jewish Book Council ISRAEL IN PRINT trip. This is a unique Taglit-birthright israel trip with a special focus on journalism, writing, and literature. This free ten-day trip is for Jewish young adults ages 18-26 who have not yet been to Israel on a peer experience, and it will feature all of the elements of the regular birthright israel trip--hiking, jeep rides, climbing Masada, floating in the Dead Sea, enjoying the excitement and culture of Safed, Tiberias, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, and many other activities--plus discussions with journalists and authors in Israel and exploring the Israeli literary scene. The trip is scheduled for early June and will be staffed by a Jewish Book Council professional and author/journalist Ruth Andrew Ellenson. If you know of anyone--friends, family members, students, members of your community--who might be interested in participating, please tell them to check out the page on our website http://www.jewishbookcouncil.org/page.php?26 or to email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Although the trip is not until the summer, registration starts in just a few weeks (mid-February).
