Teen Connection

From Wikibbyo

Teen Connection (TC) is a BBYO program designed especially for Jewish 7th and 8th graders who are interested in enjoying social, recreational, cultural and Judaic activities. Approximately once a month, Teen Connectors participate in all sorts of activities, from going to an amusement park to seeing a Major League Soccer game to volunteering at the local Hebrew Home, and so much more.

Eligibility

To be eligible for TC, you must be a Jewish teen in the 7th or 8th grade. For the spring semester, 8th graders are eligible to join BBYO, but are still allowed to attend TC events in addition to BBYO events. 6th graders become eligible to join TC at the beginning of the second semester.
