This members-only experience is bound to set the bar. All 8th-12th grade Delta Region teens are invited to Memphis, from April 1-3, for a Spring Convention like you've never seen before. Aside from diving deep into the uniqueness of our BBYO siblinghood, we will celebrate our past year and set our sights on what's to come. 

After Fall Convention we know that a weekend back together is what you need.

WHAT TO EXPECT 👀

Spring Convention is the topper on the cake! It's a weekend that includes our State of the Address ceremony, honoring our Regional Presidents, a convention outing where will we have the opportunity to get out of the hotel and explore Memphis, and a J-Serve experience like you've never seen before. The weekend is tied together on Sunday morning as we move to elect our 75th and 95th Delta Regional Boards.

COME J-SERVE WITH US!

Over the weekend of April 1-3, teens from across the world will be participating in J-Serve; A unique opportunity to band together through service as a united global network committed to fulfilling the Jewish values of gemilut chasidim, acts of loving kindness, tzedakah, just and charitable giving, and tikkun olam, the responsibility to repair the world. This year, Jewish teens from across Delta Region will spend time on this special day and throughout the convention to make their community and the world a better place.

Cost: $325.00
