Mission To
Washington:
An Inside
View
By Bobbi Bernstein
The Charlotte Jewish
Federation invites the
members of the Jewish com
munity to participate in a
regional mission to Wash
ington. This is a unique op
portunity for an inside view
of how America’s political
leaders view the critical
issues of concern to the
Jewish people both in the
United States and abroad.
The mission will feature
briefings by high-level of
ficials from the White
House, Congress, the Israeli
Embassy and AIPAC. It will
include lunch on capitol hill,
dinner, hotel accommoda
tions, and tickets to the It
zhak Perlman - Vladimir
Askenazi concert at the Ken
nedy Center for the Perform
ing Arts.
This Washington mission
provides participants with
an opportunity to explore an
“insiders” view of the power
centers of our nation’s
capital. It is unique in that
men and women from
Charlotte will be together
with others in the southeast
region who share their in
terests and concerns.
The trip will take place on
Thursday and Friday,
February 25 and 26 and has
thoughtfully been planned so
that anyone who wishes
many stay on in Washington
for the weekend. The cost is
$125.00 per person, not in
cluding transportation. The
federation office will be hap
py to make plane reserva
tions for those interested in
participating. This mission
is open to any man or woman
giving a minimum gift of
$1000.00 to the 1982 U.J.A.-
Federation campaign.
The number of spaces is
limited, so it is imperative
that those interested reserve
this date on their calendar
and call the Federation office
as soon as possible.
(366-0358) More detailed in
formation concerning this
mission may be obtained at
the Federation office.
