FBLA off to a busy start

     Future Business Leaders of America has all ready been busy and the new school year has just started.

     FBLA helps promote business leadership, understand American business enterprise, establish career goals, encourage scholarships, and develops character and self confidence. FBLA has three main aspects: Social- Get to know each other and have lots of fun. Professional- To learn new things about business, attend conferences, and work on job skills. Community Service- Giving back something to the community.

    The Future Business Leaders of America helped homecoming week get off to a start with decorations and advertising the homecoming dress-up days.

    On Friday October 10th,  during the football game until halftime, they will be serving chili, with a drink and dessert to the public. The Chili Feed tickets can be bought from FBLA members for only $5 a ticket. They will be serving in the High School Commons, and tickets can be purchased at the door. "It's a great way to bring the community together and help the kids fundraise for State FBLA," Brenda Budler, co-sponsor, said. "All of the money the kids raise from selling the tickets, gets put into their FBLA account."

     FBLA has a meeting every other week on Thursdays. "The meetings consist of talking about the previous meeting and going over new events. We really encourage to all members attend the meetings just in case we discuss something new," said Renae Noble, other co-sponsor.

     This year's president is Allie Johnson. Tate Cullers is serving as vice-president. Secretary is Brooke Roes, Treasurer; Alex Fritzler,  Reporter; Julianne Dickerson, and Activities director; Greta Welch.
