ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE 2021 PNWJETAA STEERING COUNCIL · · ·

Dear alumni and friends,

We hope you are well as we transition into September and the start of a new season. As many of you know, 2020 marked the 30th anniversary of the establishment of Pacific Northwest JET Alumni Association as a chapter. While we could not celebrate this milestone last year, we were optimistic that an in-person event would be possible in fall 2021. Unfortunately, this year has seen a number of set-backs, not the least of which being the rise in coronavirus cases and the spread of the highly contagious Delta variant.

After careful consideration and discussion, the PNWJETAA Steering Council has made the difficult decision to postpone all celebrations for the chapter's 30th anniversary. We want to give this achievement the proper attention it rightfully deserves—not for our own sakes, but for the many alumni like you who have contributed to PNWJETAA throughout its history. We will make further announcements once planning for this event restarts.

In the meantime, please keep connecting with the Steering Council, as well as your fellow alumni and friends of JET, through our Facebook page, group, Instagram, and website. We are still actively working behind the scenes, even if our activities are limited at this time.

Thank you very much for your support, patience, and understanding.

With gratitude,

The PNWJETAA Steering Council
Samantha Corpuz, Jessica Record, and Jeremy Odden (Executive Officers)

This will be an in-person private event for all outgoing JETs departing from Seattle. The event is also subject to change at short notice based upon the guidance from the CDC and Department of Health.

Registration soon to come!

Enkai is translated to “work banquet”. As you start your life in Japan you will be invited to all sorts of Enkais. Enkai is your chance to connect deeper with your colleagues and be truly accepted as part of the team. Save the date and join us for dinner as members of PNWJETAA share the dos and don’ts of Enkai etiquette.

*Bentos and drinks will be available for purchase.

Are you enjoying summer so far? Are you looking to

Are you enjoying summer so far? Are you looking to enjoy it even more? Then please save the date for one of PNWJETAA’s most anticipated yearly events: Summer Picnic!

When: Saturday, August 7th (11 a.m.-3 p.m.)

Where: Luther Burbank Park (Beach Area C)–While the parking lot has been expanded since the last in-person picnic, it’s still limited. As such, (safe!) carpooling should be a consideration. Additionally, the park is about a 15 minute walk from the Mercer Island Park and Ride bus stop.

This will be an in-person event, based upon current guidance from the CDC and Department of Health. While we are cautiously optimistic about being able to #JETtogether with friends (old and new), the event itself may look a bit different than in years past. The event is also subject to change at short notice–please keep an eye out for updates/notifications via our Facebook event page, Instagram, and website. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

Regarding food: Some food will be provided by PNWJETAA, including a vegetarian/vegan option, but if you are more comfortable bringing your own picnic food, please feel free to do so.
