Maine Conference for Jewish Life
June 13-15, 2025
Thomas College, Waterville, Maine

 We are so excited to invite you to join us at the Maine Conference for Jewish Life! Please fill out this form for each member of your party (you'll need to use the "Save Registrant" button at the bottom). 

Here are some important details to know for this year's conference—please read thoroughly and contact us with any questions! 

  • Prices in general for this year's conference have not substantially increased from last year. The prices you see reflect rising costs for staffing and catering services. The prices we charge will not cover food costs for the conference—let alone any other costs. We keep the cost of the conference artificially low in order to accommodate the needs of Maine's Jewish community. If you are able to make an additional donation to help defray the cost of putting on this event, and to help us cover those who cannot pay full price, please consider doing so; your generosity allows us to create dynamic, inclusive programming! 
  • We are lucky to receive sponsorships from many synagogues across Maine to allow us to provide discounts and scholarships as needed. We also offer a college student discount. If you need additional financial support in order to attend the conference, please email Mel Weiss at the address below. Cost should never be a barrier. Please note that early bird pricing ended on March 31.
  • Our provisional schedule is up! Please note that between now and June, things can shift and change. If this affects your registration, please be in touch with us and we will happily work to address any issues.

If you have questions about this form or the conference, or need to share additional information, please contact Mel Weiss at [email protected] 

Please note that if you do not receive a confirmation email, your registration has not gone through.
