CLOTHING TIPS
Clothing should be geared for a recreational program. Emphasis should be on lightweight clothing, sports clothing, and clothing that is easily laundered.
The following list is useful as a basic guide. Please feel free to adapt this to your needs.
We will be doing laundry twice during the summer, but please make sure you have sufficient clothes for 10 days. Please note that Yachad is NOT responsible for any lost or broken items. Please do not bring any items that will upset you if they are lost or broken.
Important:Due to the extreme weather in Israel, hats are not “recommended”-They are REQUIRED to be worn at all times when outside. This is not a suggestion, but a rule.
You must bring 2-3 hats/bandanas as well as enough sunscreen for the full trip.
Remember to mark all of your clothing with name tags or laundry markers.
