Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone! It seems like just a few days ago that we had our first meeting, but the JSA season is halfway near its end and as the JSA executive board reflects on everything we have accomplished this year, we are grateful to have such motivated and dedicated JSAers involved in our chapter. Each and every one of you show dedication and effort to the club and we honestly could not have accomplished so much in a mere four months. That being said, we hope everyone has had a wonderful winter break so far, and here are some updates on chapter activities.
1. Winter Congress: Winter Congress registration is now available! Please visit http://sbhsjsa.weebly.com/winter-congress.html for all information. We will provide more information at our next meeting on January 9, 2014, but for those of you who want to get a head start, please start thinking of bill ideas and drafting your bill. A guide and bill format are all available at the link above. In addition, start thinking about who you want to room with- rooms are four people to a room, same gender.
2. WorldCon: Our chapter conference has officially been rescheduled to January 11, 2014! Please visit www.tinyurl.com/worldconinfo for all information for the conference. This event is highly recommended as a chance to meet fellow JSAers across the state, receive event credit, and it is the most convenient and low cost conference of the year. Please join our facebook event page if you are interested in going at www.tinyurl.com/worldconfb and preregister here: www.tinyurl.com/worldconprereg.
3. Adopt a Family: Thank you so much to all who donated! We were successful with the initiative and was able to provide our family with everything on their wish list.
4. Our next meeting: Next general meeting is on January 9, 2014! We will be discussing all things Winter Congress and hosting a bill writing workshop. We have recently been receiving a lot of questions about meeting dates. Please remember to refer to our calender here:

5. Upcoming Events: Debate Wars is coming up on January 26, 2014! Debate Wars is a joint event hosted by the New Jersey Region and the Empire Constitution Region. Students have the opportunity to fight for their region through debates, fundraisers, and enthusiasm. The event will be hosted by Stuyvesant High School in New York. This event is highly recommended as it is a large regional event with kids with New Jersey and New York while being low cost. SBJSAers will receive event credit if they attend. Please join the event page if you are interested in attending: https://www.facebook.com/events/242415119256666/
