| - | + | Sondra B. Moore West Chester BBYO #5206 was founded approximately 40 years ago. The mascot and logo have been switched several times over the years, the most recognized currently is the Cows (specifically 'Moourice'). The chapter was named after a community member who died in childhood of cancer. Advised for many years by Maurice Linnette, the chapter grew to become one of the strongest in the nation, with members taking many regional positions and even helping to write [[Stand Together]] (former chapter Godol and regional Moreh, Larry Neil). As the chapter moved into the 21st century, major changes occurred. First of all, there was a massive growth in the Jewish population of Chester County, leading to the establishment of a new synagogue, the third in the area. Secondly, 2 synagogues, including Kesher Israel, started USY chapters. Kesher Israel USY and West Chester BBYO planned a few yearly events together, mostly joining in 'Left Over Turkey' overnight programs. In addition, growth within the chapter caused its board to decide to create two boards, one AZA and one BBG, for the chapter to get it ready to split. Replicating the style of Allentown and Wilmington, West Chester began to expand in leadership and size. A new advisor, Doreen Strauss, and new quality members have resulted in West Chester's reemergence as a force to be reckoned with within CRE and the international order. West Chester BBYO won International Chapter of the Year for 2010-2011 and the Division 1 Spirit Stick at Tournies of 2010. | |
