In 2009, NERC was held at the Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston Mass.  Held from April 17th-19th, the conference had brothers from Theta, Beta Epsilon, Beta Nu, Beta Pi, Beta Upsilon, and Epsilon Kappa in attendance.  2008-2009 Senior Region Consultant Ryan DeGuzman was also in attendance.  Planning for the conference took place using Google Groups and Meebo.  Housing for the conference was provided by the brothers of the Epsilon Kappa Chapter. NERC 2009 featured an Olympics style social event, a book collection service project for a local YMCA, a trip to the New England Aquarium, and a scenario-based workshop.

The Northeast Regional Conference (NERC) is the annual regional conference of the Northeast Region.

NERC 2010

History

NERC, was created as a way of allowing the chapters in the Northeast Region to gather and partake in service, scholarship, and social events, as well as foster bonds between individual brothers in different chapters. The first NERC took place at Delta Alpha on the campus of Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY on April 4-6, 2002. Since then, the site has rotated through the other chapters in the region.

During the 2011-2012 school year, planning took place using Google Plus technology for the first time (previous years had relied on Wiggio) in addition to collaboration with Mercedes Himmons as part of the National 5-star Regional Conference program. This was also the first year that the conference was held at Beta Pi.
