Second Day in the Books, Mayors elected, sports kicked off


A small number of the 200 delegates that attended Monday's Careers in Emergency Medicine seminar


After two full days at Rider University, the 2011 delegates are hard at work in their Jersey Boys State cities and counties, solving problems from their city and county descriptions and electing leaders. "A Week That Shapes the Future", the delegates have chosen to take part in careers seminars like the one featured above, Careers in Emergency Medicine. In addition on Monday, leaders in business and public safety joined ALJBS for Careers on Wall Street and the Stock Market, and Careers in Law Enforcement; Real Estate; and Technology. On Tuesday, over 75 schools will be at the annual College and Career Fair in Rider's Student Recreation Center. (click here for the full list for 2011)

One of the highlights of the night came when The Hon. Herbert Conaway addressed the delegation. Current NJ State Assemblyman, Legislative District 7, and former ALJBS Governor, Assemblyman Conaway spoke of his time during and since ALJBS and the lessons it provided during his time as Governor of ALJBS back in 1980.
