TIYUL TALK [1] LAST CALL for the Artzeinu tours The first tiyul was in last week's TT, but the other two tiyulim were not. So read carefully. [2] Registration for our next in-house Shabbaton is going nicely. Don't be left out. We will try to hold the number of participants down to 75-80 to maximize the efficiency and free-flow of the Shabbaton. [3] We are planning to have meals on Shabbat Erev Pesach - i.e. Friday night davening & meal and early Shabbat morning davening & meals. Cost will be $20 p.p. per meal (Shabbat day's two meals are like one). We have started to take reservations, so call soon in order not to be surprised by, "Sorry, we're full". Geared for families, couples, singles. [4] We are also planning (if there is interest) to have a second Seder, Yom Tov Sheni davening and meals for STUDENTS, at reduced, subsudized rates. Even if your plans for Pesach are not concrete, call us to say that you MIGHT want to join us. It will help in our planning.
