Why Wisconsin Region is Special

Wisconsin Region has a few peculiarities. Some of them are listed below.
-Wisconsin Region is the only region that has a weekly "oneg." Oneg is an event held every Friday after school at the BBYO offices inside the JCC. The traditional Shabbat blessings are said, and Alephs and BBGs have a chance to hang out together.
-Wisconsin Region is the only region that repeats the phrase "for us" in birkat ha'mazon due to a typo in a printout years ago. In Wisconsin, the English portion of the prayer is said, "May G-d who makes peace in high places make peace for us, for us, for all Israel, and for all humanity.
