NBM 2013 Thus Far

NBM is up and running, and Day 2 has just finished. We started off the day with some chapter check-ins, and there are some great things happening in all the chapters. The JB got a lot done today, with the NJR candidate workshop run by Mercedes and Lea (the two NJR candidates), Skype check-ins with the IJRs and Mariana from AJB. We went and sat in on the adult plenary and had a joint session held by the risk managers about the new child protection policy. 
Later on, we had the gala held by CISV Ottawa, which was fantastic! We had great food, catered by a local Indian catering company, and dessert donated from a local bakery. A great local Inuit singing and dancing group came in, and showed us traditional Inuit songs, dances and games, which was a lot of fun! Some of the Eh Team even participated and impressed everyone! The whole thing was DJ'd by the Compton brothers from JB Ottawa, and the dance that was held afterwards was awesome as well. 
It's been a busy day for everyone at NBM, but we're only getting more excited for tomorrow, where we'll have the DCC workshop, NJR Q&A and the long awaited hockey draft! 
Stay tuned for more NBM news to come!
