Building our JETAA Community Initiatives

Ongoing | JETAA Mid-South wants YOU for our Steering Committee!
Most of us are finding that we have a bit of spare time these days as we shelter at home and stay socially distant.  Why not spend some of that time hanging out and making plans with your JETAA Mid-South friends! 

Click Here to learn more about our Steering Committee

Above all, remember that JETAA Mid-South is laid-back - so we're not expecting our Steering Committee to change the world.  We're a small community focused on keeping our community healthy and having fun in the process.
