Tatami Parties

Charity Akita (formerly AAJ and Room to Read) holds two tatami Parties throughout the year at prefecture-wide conferences: the first at Akita Orientation and the second at the Skills Development Conference. The Tatami Parties are a chance for JETs to get together, eat, and relax after the day's conference and to spend time with JETs from other parts of the prefectures! Charity Akita often hosts a book swap event in conjunction with the Tatami Party.
