// What do you love most about CJAM?
I love the care & support from the staff and other CJAMmers. I recall on the first day of my time as The Windsor Scene host I met another jammer for the first time at a cafe & they said such kind & encouraging words; the sentiment still resonates with me to this day. Everyone’s just go nice and cool. It feels like I’m a part of a family <3
