Our September 2010 Newsletter will contain Rosh Hashana greetings.
If you would like
to greet your family and friends through the pages of our magazine,

The charge for this service is NIS 40.
The Home Front Command (Pikud HaOref)
has announced the new distribution drive of individual
protective kits that will take place among the Israeli population. This
process is planned to continue for approximately 3 years.
There will be
public distribution centers throughout the country but you can
get your masks
delivered via The Israel Postal Courier Service to a convenient address.
Orders can be
made by telephone to the distribution center between 7.00am-10.00pm
(Friday 7.00am-2:00pm). Dial 171 for someone to contact you.
Date of delivery
will be determined in coordination with the client. Delivery cost is NIS
25 per household.
Gas Masks will be
provided at no cost for all eligible residents.
Residents
who have not returned their old gas masks will be required to return
them during the distribution period or, if lost, will be required to
pay.
There are plans for a free program for those who are homebound, living
in special institutions for health reasons defined by the Home Front
Command in cooperation with relevant ministries.
Note. The above
is a service notice and by no means should be taken as a sign of
imminent danger and to cause alarm to the residents of Israel.
The above
information has been translated from the home front's web page and full
details can be found in English and Hebrew at

Easy Access to Netanya AACI
Do you find the slope and stairs at Netanya AACI make it too difficult
to come to our activities?
The taxi company Shahar 09-8822222 will drive down the runway and drop
off or collect any AACI member from the side door. All you have to do is
call the front desk 09-8330950 when you are at the barrier and we will
open it so that the taxi can drive down.
See you ALL at the AACI!
New Mobile Book Service
A new program for our members who cannot manage the access to our
building. We are introducing a book mobile
(instead of you coming to our library, the library comes to you) once a
month.
To sign up for this service, please call our offices and ask for Joan.
Library Hours
We have received a request to open the Gura Family Memorial library one
afternoon or evening a week for our members who are working and can’t
get to the AACI during the day. In the past, when the library was open
in the evening, we found very few members took advantage of the service.
If you would like us to offer this service, again please send an e-mail
to
rachel@netanyaaaci.org.il
