Amazing girls of Nava BBG #2500,

Believe it or not, this is already the last communications email for the year.  This term has been amazing and thank you all so much for all you've done whether it be coming to a few programs, being a chair, planning a program, coordinating a convention, or being there for a sister.  I can't wait to see you all again next Fall!


Congratulations to everyone who ran for board.  Running for board is an great experience, win or lose.  The fact that so many girls ran really shows how many leaders we have in our chapter which is fantastic.  Next term, they'll be so many ways to get involved in the chapter and I can't wait to see everything our chapter will do!


For those of you who couldn't make it to elections, here's our new board for Fall Term 2009:
N'siah - Ty M
S'ganit - Nora P
MIT Mom - Maddie K
Sh'licha - Jessica M
Gizborit - Ali J
Katvanit - Emily S
Mazkirah - Joanna K
Sunshine Girl - Elena M
Congrats! :)
