Q: Will there be a chance for our son to visit relatives?
A: Yes. Weekend for visiting relatives will be Friday, July 15th (11:00am) to Sunday, July 17th (3:00).
Q: Will my son be picked up from the airport?
A: Certainly! Our staff will be picking the campers arriving on the group flight, and will bring them to our accomodations. If your son is coming on a different flight, let us know the date and time of arrival. If it coincides with the group flight, he may return with the group. Otherwise, If you would like him to be picked up personally, it can be arranged for a charge.
Q: Can my son (a) come to Israel a few days before the program begins, or (b) stay in Israel for a few days after the program ends?
A: Many Aish Campers have stayed in Israel beyond the program dates, and had a positive experience. However, the dates of our program are from July 5th to 31st. Any camper who is in Israel before or after these dates needs to make their own arrangements.
note: If your son will indeed be in Israel before July 5th, he may come to our accomodations (contact us for address) on Tuesday, July 5th, between 7:00AM and noon.
Q: My son visited Israel a few times already - is Aish Camp for him?
A: From our experience, this has never been an issue. The trips we take bring us to many unusual sites which your son is not likely to have been to. In addition, our great staff, campers and atmosphere make for a unique experience which your son will always remember.
TIPS:
-> Make sure your son has a valid passport ASAP. Renewing a passport at the last minute is usually possible - but at the cost of much money, tension and bureaucracy.
-> When submitting your application, be sure all required fields are filled in. If you have recurring trouble submitting your application, you may copy the entire filled application and paste it onto a Word file. Send us the Word application as an attachment. (You can also copy an empty application onto a Word document and fill it using the Word program). After submitting the application successfully, you will see a thank you message verifying that your data has been submitted.
