  • Spring Convention (a convention happening in mid-May to elect the next year's regional boards)

Spirit

CVR has very few songs and cheers and is currently looking for more good ones. If anyone has any feel free to inform them. CVR has many changing mascots, rarely keeping one for more than a year. Though CVR historically has not had a large International presence or much spirit, both things have been increasing largely in the past couple of years.

Songs and Cheers

AZA Mascot

The current AZA mascot is a Goat on a stick dressed as a pirate. The goats name is Maurice. It was elected at Fall Convention 2005.

BBG Mascot

The current BBG mascot is a Vixen (a female fox). It was elected at B'Yachad 2004.

Color

CVR BBG's colors are Gold and Yellow. They were elected at B'Yachad 2005.
