Please see the email below - if you are interested in participating in this conference, we have the opportunity to send 4 students. Two would be from University of Winnipeg and two would be from University of Manitoba. If the response is overwhelming - we will do it on a first come first serve basis. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me via email at rmalam(a)aspercampus.mb.ca or by phone 4777502. Roberta Dear Student Leaders, Last August, most of you participated in the first ever Canadian Federation of Jewish Students National Leadership Retreat at Camp George in Parry Sound, Ontario. We had an amazing time together, networking, learning, strategizing for the upcoming year and partying. As this year has drawn to a close, we are now looking forward to next year and have begun preparations for our second annual National Leadership Retreat. This year's retreat will be held August 24th-27th at Camp George. The cost will be $99 which will include transportation to and from the camp, all meals and snacks, room and the program fee. This is, of course, an amazing deal. In order to move forward with invitations and registration it is vital that we have the most up to date contact information for each of your successors. I'm asking you to take a minute to email me back with the names and contact information of the Presidents and Vice Presidents of the Jewish and Israel groups on your campus. Please include the name of your campus and for which club(s) you are sending me information. If for some reason you don't have this info, please inform me as soon as possible so that we have time to find the right people from your campus to attend the retreat. It would also be much appreciated if you could let your successors know about the dates of the retreat and let them know that they should be expecting an invitation shortly. Thank you for your support, Isaac Apter VP Programming, Canadian Federation of Jewish Students (CFJS) Phone: (416) 275-7867 Email: isaac(a)cfjs.ca Web: www.cfjs.ca Founded by the leaders of Jewish student groups across the country, the Canadian Federation of Jewish Students (CFJS) is committed to enriching the Canadian Jewish student community by fostering Jewish identity, developing leadership, facilitating communication, and providing representation.
