Okay! So let's get this show on the road!

It's a new JET year and nothing makes this cycle more special than our new JETs themselves.
I'm sure we all fondly remember being a newbie with the hope of making new friends in a foreign land. Well, senpai JETs, it's on you to show our new JETs just how awesome our prefecture can be.
And new JETs, this is the perfect opportunity to meet new people and see all that Tohoku's grandest city has to offer.
​It's our annual MAJET Welcome Party! And each and every one of you Miyagi JETs are invited.

You can expect a memorable night with an 8 course Japanese style dinner and all you can drink, alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages. Thereafter feel free to explore Sendai and enjoy more drinking at one of the many bars, karaoke if you'd like to flex those vocal cords, Mario Kart and claw machines at the gaming arcades, or all of the above. Whichever tickles your fancy.

Hey everyone! It's been a while since this feed was used, but we're feeling nostalgic, so we're bringing it back! The MAJET webpage has a new look and we've got a new committee! But we'll continue to bring you the important info about our yearly events! So keep your eyes posted for new things popping up!

Yoroshiku!

Thank you to everyone who came out on Saturday!! It was our first event as the new MAJET Committee and it was a lot of fun! 

After a successful journey to Sapporo for Yuki Matsuri, MAJET put on our first ever Izakaya Quiz in Sendai during March! (To be distinguished from prior pub quizzes.)
Four teams competed in a Jeopardy-style battle, and fortunately there were no casualties by the end of the night! In April, we had a less successful hanami event; however, we blame it on the weather!

Now that things have finally warmed up in Miyagi, we would like to announce the next round of events! In late May or early June, we will organize a Mt. Kurikoma climb - our first event of this kind. In late June, we will have our annual Leavers Party on Oshima Island. And in July, we will once again hold the Miyagi International Art & Culture Show! More details on these events can be found on their respective pages. Hope you can make it out!
