3. Weather:
The scheduled time for the event is the middle of the summer in Israel.
The Average temperatures in the Dead Sea area are 38-39 degrees Celsius.
The exceptionally low humidity (15-20%) makes it much more comfortable
than conditions of high humidity.
You do not sweat, therefore it is very important to drink a lot.
4. Accommodation:
Many hotels are available in the Dead Sea resort area of Newe
Zohar. After checking offers from all the hotels in the resort, we have
chosen
one hotel as the official event hotel, which we believe to be the best
deal in the area. Therefore, we are planning and hoping that all the
teams will opt to stay in this same hotel. We can only recommend that
you choose to stay here as opposed to somewhere else. We can also save
you time by taking care of your hotel reservation for you.
A shuttle bus will be available for the teams from the resort to the
airfield and back every hour.
Please check, compare, and decide
We will always try to take care of any problems that team members may
encounter. Therefore, to enable us to do this more efficiently, we
prefer that all the teams stay in the same hotel and use the same
services.
The best deals for reservations at the event hotel officially apply
until
31, January 2009. Therefore we recommend that you make a reservation,
which can always be cancelled later. In any case,
reservations at the event hotel require an advance payment of 20%. (If
you cancel, you will pay a 20% cancellation fee, but at least you will
have somewhere to sleep).
The rest of the payment will be made at the hotel after your arrival.
Accommodation fees for the event hotel will be published by July 2008 on
the website Event Hotel Page.
You can make your own reservation directly at any other hotel of your
choice. (If you get a better price than the one we published, please let
us know!)
All the hotels in the area are to be found on many web sites including:
http://www.hotels-in-israel.com/DeadSea.cfm
