MEET THE Hostess

Blaine Kantor

What made you decide that you wanted to become hostess?

I am PASSIONATE about Latin and wanted to get more involved in this amazing organization. GJCL has truly changed my life and I am excited to be on the team that helps plan these life-changing events!

What is your primary goal for your term?

My primary goal for my term is to make sure that each new and small GJCL chapter feels supported, trained, and involved in all things GJCL! I will work around my schedule to meet with the new delegations as often as needed to ensure that each chapter, no matter how big or how small, feels involved in the amazing GJCL community. To me, this means I will need to take a very hands-on approach to mentor new delegations. I will meet with their boards and teacher sponsors regularly to ensure that the goals and values of the Junior Classical League are being upheld through their chapter and discuss individual chapter goals. I will also assist the new delegations with advertising strategies and teach them how to run meetings and plan service projects.

What are you most excited about now that you’re hostess?

I am so excited to serve the organization that has changed my life for the better!

Who is your JCLove?

I have met so many zealous and amazing people through JCL, but all of the members of the Georgia delegation have a special place in my heart! <3

And then there were nine! A failed attempt of a group jump picture with all of the officers!
