About the Temple Shalom Trip

Chaperones: This trip is staffed by at least one member of our Learning & Engagement team who will travel with and lead the group through the L'taken experience. A  member of the clergy will also join us for part or all of the trip.

Travel & Stay: We will fly as a group to DC and back. Coach busses are provided by the seminar for ground transportation while in DC. Students will stay in hotel rooms of 3 or 4 Temple Shalom students. The chaperones have rooms on the same floor and are available to assist students at all times.

Cost: The cost is dependent on the price of flights. The trip total is usually between $700-$900 (this includes flight, hotel, the seminar, and most meals.) Some scholarship money is available on a case by case basis.
