Toledo BBYO Update

Originally published in the Toledo Jewish News

Toledo BBYO has had a busy, exciting and fun start to 2016. The year began with Regional Exec v2, where the executive boards of B'not Shalom and BSN received training from the Regional Board and then had time to plan out calendars for the rest of the spring. On Sunday, January 24, both chapters worked together to host a Murder Mystery program at the Baders' home. To earn a clue, the teens had to participate in team building activities, BBYO trivia and finally a dance off.

During the last weekend of January, six teens attended Regional Kallah at Hiram House. The teens participated in many different activities inspired by Jewish learning, such as Jewish values, Jewish Scattergories, "What Does Being a Jew Mean to You?", and Israel themed programs. Saturday night concluded with a Judaism panel where the teens were able to ask questions to a rabbi, his wife and other members of the Jewish community. B'not Shalom's Mollie Groth was also announced as one of the three coordinators for Regional Convention coming up in April and Alexa Bader was announced as a member of the steering committee.
