Gold Coast Region
From Wikibbyo
Gold Coast Region: Is a BBYO region stretching from the eastern coast of South Florida from its northernmost point, Boynton Beach, FL to its southernmost, Fort Lauderdale, FL. GCR used to be known as Gold Coast Council (When Florida Region still existed), but is now in its 14th year of being a region of BBYO International. We are home to 14 beautiful chapters, and pride ourselves in being a family. We are affectionately known as the "Alien Nation". Come see what all the buzz is about!
Gold Coast Region is home to over 700 members with strong chapters.
We are home to the past International Sh'licha, Andie Djamal, past Grand Aleph Mazkir, Jason Gordon, And home to the current International Mazkirah, Caroline Schrock.
