Dear Deor,

well quite a project. I really hope that your experiences will further the coming WLM for next year too. Please share it with us at the scheduled meeting.

best regards

During the month of the competition we also held 20 events including two
photography workshops (sponsored by the Galitz school of photography),
18 guided tours (sponsored by the Council for Heritage Sites in Israel),
and two tours at the Israel Museum (the museum allowed free entrance to
the participants). about 400 people participated in the events. Our
volunteers chaperoned the tours ready to answer all questions about the
competition.

500 people visited our both at  a photography fare, 800 people wrote to
us requesting information about the tours, 600 joined our mailing lists.

All very interesting: I'm curious to see if this will impact the after the fact activity of new users too; surely, however, you've done a lot of information!


We wish to thank our volunteers who helped with the tours, and with
creating the lists of monuments (as you may recall we had to create the
lists for the competition - none exited before it).

My sympaties! Six thousands images is not bad at all without pre-made lists, as I know from WMIT's experience: congratulations.
