Chairmanship Descriptions


BBYO Connect Chairs (1 AZA + 1 BBG)

BBYO Connect provides 6th, 7th and 8th graders with safe, enriching programming, fun activities and meaningful involvement in the community. The BBYO Connect Chairs will work closely with Regional Morim & Regional Staff to help plan, promote, implement and facilitate monthly BBYO Connect programs and will recruit other AZA/BBG members to attend as well.

AZAA/BBGG Chairs (1 AZA + 1 BBG)

AZAA (A-Z-Double-A) stands for Aleph Zadik Aleph Athletics and BBGG (B-B-Double-G) stands for B’nai B’rith Girls Games.
