[Wiki Loves Monuments] Competition Dates in Israel

[Deror Avi]

Dear All,

Further to my previous email, I wish to advise that it is our opinion as well as the National Heritage Council and the sponsors 
we have contacted that the competition should take place in Israel 
between 14 September and 14 October (ie during the month of Tishrei) for the following reasons: 

* Between 16 September and 26 September are the High Holidays of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur during which we cannot do events and it 
is unlikely that pictures will be uploaded during these holidays. 

* During the holiday of Sukkot (30 September - 9 October) the Israeli 
public usually tours the country and visits locations around the country. Therefore, this 
holiday period may be used for the competition, and many events may be 
scheduled for this holiday.

We will make sure 
that the final results be sent to the international competition on time, i.e. by 21 October, and therefore the shift in the competition dates 
should not affect the international competition.

Regards,
Deror
