Shalom Safranim and Friends!

Here is your weekly conference update to keep you informed about the upcoming AJL conference, June 27–29, 2022, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

• View the updated preliminary program.

• Register on our conference webpage; check the instructions to add tours or additional meals to your cart.

• Monday night dinner is not included in conference registration, but you can add a boxed kosher dinner during or after registering. Select "Monday Boxed Kosher Dinner (veggie wrap, chips, fruit, dessert)" via the ticket dropdown menu on the conference webpage.

• Visit the AJL Zazzle store for Conference 2022 T-shirts, mugs, notebooks, and more!

• Reminder: Out of concern for the safety of our conference attendees and guests, everyone attending must be fully vaccinated. You will be asked to show your ID and proof of vaccination at the registration table, so please be prepared (take a photo of your vaccination card, upload it to a vaccination passport app, or bring it with you.)

Volunteer Opportunities

AJL 2022: Together Again! is just over a month away and we look forward to seeing many of you in Philadelphia!

As you may know, AJL is a volunteer-run organization, and this conference wouldn't be possible without the hard work and dedication of many individuals. To ensure that the conference runs smoothly, we encourage attendees and local volunteers to sign up to help.

Opportunities include:

• Registration desk staff
• Socio app help desk support
• Exhibit hall set up, close down, and floater
• Meal greeter/ticket checker
• Catering liaison
• and more!

Local volunteers are invited to attend conference sessions at no charge on the day(s) of their shifts (meal tickets are available for purchase), so feel free to forward this information to any colleagues, friends, or neighbors who you think would be interested in helping out. We would really appreciate it!

Sign up on AJL's SignUpGenius—thank you for help making our conference a success!
