FCCLA 2010

By: Jess Bailey

The first FCCLA meeting was Thursday, September 9th in Jodee Hoiness' room (428). There was a good turn out of 13 members there, along with the advisers, Jodee Hoiness and Mathew Boberg. Many things were discussed such as the leadership training October 26th at UW Stout. This is a conference on leadership and the theme is team.

Another thing discussed was a sale of Spartan signs, pricing at $10.00 and would be sold at home games. One other fun fall activity coming up will be Toys for Tots and is around Thanksgiving.

Interested students may still join without paying any dues. Come check it out and see what its all about! Although the $20.00 for dues is needed by November 1st.

As Michelle Herrman's (a Sparta High Junior and first year FCCLA member) said she wanted to join because, "It has a great fun advisor and it seemed like a fun club to join". Brook Sullivan (a Sparta High Senior and FCCLA member) stated, "its good experience for your future and a great way to get involved with school". Take a word or two from these great members and join for good reasons. Herrman was asked why she joined and said, "because I took parents and children and it works a lot with family. Plus I want to work with children". Sullivan went on to say, "we go to cluster meetings and have a fun time." There are a lot of fun activities involved with FCCLA and it is a good background to have for a career. If you are interested you are always welcome to join, they are always looking for new members and would be overjoyed to have you. There is a meeting every Thursday morning at 7:20 in Mrs. Hoiness' room, number 428.
