Event Details

Regional Execs registration is now open and we want to use this convention as a way to prepare for the next year with all of you. All council board, convention coordinators, and chapter officers are expected to attend this convention. We want you to come excited and ready to learn!

 

This year we are focused in creating one cohesive region because we can’t have a community without unity! In addition to building a cooperative network within our councils and region, you will be learning about your position, honing in on chapter planning, and delving into other important BBYO initiatives through our amazing Limmuds and workshops planned and run by Eastern’s best and brightest.

 

We are excited to train our new leaders to strengthen their chapters and the region. Sign up today to join us in building a united community within Eastern!
