ok well im going to alumni boston this summer and i was just wondering if there is anything i should know...like is the hotel nice? can i wear the same clothes i wore to jrnylc and are there any major differences between the two conferences? and since there wasnt a question forum yet i decided to start one...

The hotel is very nice.
Its the Sheraton, at least it was last year.
And, yes, you can pretty much wear the same clothes you wore last year, but Boston is more formal than Washington, DC was.

What hotel are we staying at?

it depends when you are going...just go into the jab website and click on ur date and it will tell you

I was pretty sure that all of the jab sessions stayed at the SHeraton.

HOW MUCH IS THE TUITION FOR BOSTON

aboutt the same as JrNylc.

In Boston at the hotels is it 4 persons to a room or just 2 since the room does not have bunk beds

whenn i went it was 3 people to a room.

I haven't gone yet (going next month! ), but I read either online or in the information packet that it would be three to a room: One person to each bed (two beds in a room) and one person on a cot, and we're expected to trade off every night.

Besides the essentials, What do you suggest bringing? Thanks! Can't wait for Boston!!

Byee



Every one loves so they must love me!

I would definitely recommend bringing some insect repellent or something of the sorts.. Although I haven't been in that area during the summer, my dad and aunt have and they said that it gets really humid, which attracts mosquitos. Also, I would suggest bringing an umbrella. In the packet, it also suggests it, and I think it would be a good idea because I just looked up the weather in Boston, and it said that it's gonna get rainy starting July 7th.

Hope this helped at all, Butter!! ^^,

Thanks!!


everyone lovs so they must love me!

Ok so i'm going to boston on july 18th through july 23rd, and i have a couple questions and if anyone can answer them PLEASE do cause i don't know what to pack and stuff.
1. So last year i went to the conference in Washington DC and almost everyone broke the dress code in some way (most people wore shorter skirts and different colors)but i didn't and i didn't fit in with everyone else and it was annoying so this year i was thinking of just packing a pair of dress pants, a couple dress tops (mostly white polos) and a bunch of skirts (shorter than the knee. they're from aeropostale) but i don't want to get in trouble. any ideas??
2. what is the hotel like? how many room mates?
3.how is the program? any fun?
4. how r the FA's? Strict or not strict?
5. any more details would help SOOOO much
sorry for the really long post but i need answers

On room mates, Is it by last name like DC? just wondering!

They did it by last name in D.C.?! o_o
I never noticed. XDD

Probably. XD I know for sure we get three roomates. Every night, two people each get a bed and one person gets a cot, and we're trading every night. As for the hotel, I've heard it's beautiful. The reviews said that the service is good and the food is awesome, and the rooms get free wi-fi! *is bringing a laptop*

I would be careful if I were u about bringin a laptop, you wouldn't want it to get stolen!!

My advice is, don't bring your laptop, I know it has wi-fi and stuff, but you wouldn't want it to get stolen!

Sorry, didn't mean to put it twice!

The dress code is definitely not strict. There are only two times when anything above casual is required. For those twotimes I suggest roughly following dress code. If your skirt is a little short, thats probably fine. On casual days, I wore my short shorts and no one said anything...
The hotel is really really pretty. Very nice. For more info on the hotel, you could look it up. it has a very nice and informative website. You gett two roomates, some got one. It depends. But most ended up with two. They do it alphabetically.
The program is very interesting as well. I found it more interesting than JrNylc. I definitely learned more at Boston. The FAs could be really nice or really strict. either way, they're usually a lot of fun.
Don't stress Boston and meet as many people as you can because the last night on the shipp was one of the most amazing nights of my entire life. As always, keep in touch with everyone:]
i know you'll have fun.
goodluckk.
