4. Volunteer opportunities
The leader of the Japan Festival committee approached me to see if I or any of our JETAA members (2 total) would be interesting in joining their planning committee. “The festival will be on April 13-14, 2013 at Hermann Park, and the committee will meet monthly, bi-monthly and then weekly as the time get closer. As the festival will be the 20th, we would like to put our heads together to make the festival better than ever, and special.” If you have interest please email me at president@texomajetaa.org (mailto:president@texomajetaa.org)

As always any requests or recommendations on how we can improve our chapter are welcome so email us anytime.

Thank you,
Drew Himmelreich
