VIDEO REPORT
JACL/OCA DC LEADERSHIP DELEGATES

Good Morning NCWNP Delegates,
 
As shown at the May 3rd District Council Meeting, attached is the video link to the 2009 NCWNP JACL/OCA DC Leadership Delegates Video that was shown as part of the DC Leadership Conference report from Jessica Kawamura (Berkeley Chapter) and Tomoko Roudebush (Diablo Valley Chapter), our 2009 NCWNP Delegates for this year's conference.
 
This video includes interviews with both Jessica and Tomoko, as well as other members who attended the conference on their experiences, what they learned, and their reflections.  Photographs that were taken over the conference can be seen during the video to show highlights of the conference's activities.
 
Please disperse this video link to your chapter boards and members, this is a great tool for NCWNP to use as a recruitment tool for next year's candidates for the 2010 JACL/OCA DC Leadership Conference.  Anyone who may show interest in attending the conference or may want to know more about the conference can definitely learn from both Jessica and Tomoko's interviews.
 
We are currently finding ways to update this to the NCWNP District Website, but until then, please pass on this video link to all who may be interested in viewing it.
