05 Nov '04

Hillel/JSA - ONE Weekend Update Hello All! We would like to tell you about this major event coming up. From Thursday January 20th to Sunday January 23rd there will be the ONE weekend in Montreal. "ONE is a weekend opportunity for Jewish University students around the country to unite together in Montreal to share an experience of a lifetime. We have called our gathering ONE as it represents the idea that we are all one nation, of one heart, with one god, we have one religion, one land, and one heritage. Furthermore participants are all ONE in that they are Jewish Canadian University students and are connected by this shared identity and reality, and are forever joined by the nature of their experiences. This weekend will be a combination of educational and inspirational activities as well as fun and social events. We have renowned speakers and leaders in areas of Judaism, feminism, unity, Israel, politics, not-for-profit organizations etc. joining us for the weekend. As well we will have an exciting party of hundreds and hundreds of Jewish university students in the heart of downtown Montreal." The itinerary is still being ironed out but the National Jewish Campus Life has begun booking speakers and entertainment. While nothing is set in stone here is some pertinent information as we have it now: Cost - Students staying in the hotel will pay $150. Students not sleeping in the hotel will pay slightly discounted price. Other than that NJCL will be covering all costs except airfare. Hillel/JSA Winnipeg will provide some subsidies (this info will be more accurate once we know how many people are interested in going). In terms of registration NJCL is currently putting together a website, registration will be online. As soon as registration opens up we will let you know. If you are interested in going please let Gadi know ASAP by emailing gadig(a)shaw.ca Hillel/JSA Executive Board
