This Tuesday two state officers, Kate and Nick, and the national officer candidate, Sydney attended the IACTE/IFCSE Conference in Des Moines to promote Iowa FCCLA. They attended several breakout sessions where they helped new advisers and potential advisers to gain a better understanding of FCCLA. Kate and Nick even had to opportunity to meet with DMACC President Rob Denson and share their personal experiences with him. Later that night, the three were able to speak to FCS teachers about the benefits of having FCCLA in their communities. The conference was a wonderful experience for the team to network with advisers, hand out business cards, and set up school visits.
The SEC gathered for three days packed full of learning and fun! Our first opportunity to flaunt our Red Jacket Swag was during the FCCLA Board of Directors Meeting, where we got to meet the adults in charge of FCCLA’s success. Then, we visited the Children and Families of Iowa. Together we have chosen this organization as our State Wide Service Project. After dinner, we returned to our hotel to prepare a few surprises for National Leadership Conference. We can’t wait to share them with you! The next day we attended CTSO Officer Training and bonded with the other Iowa CTSO officers (DECA, HOSA, FBLA, BPA). We made some great friends and shared ideas on fundraising, recruitment, community service, and conference ideas. Our favorite part was the Improv-Rap-Battle-Ice-Breaker! We hope to incorporate all of the ideas we’ve learned to an event with you! On the final day of or meeting, we developed and addressed over 120 sponsorship letters. We left the meeting with our heads spinning with ideas and more excited than ever for National Leadership Conference. We hope to see you there! |
