  9. A learning opportunity was presented to FBLA members. WSECU is sponsoring an event called “Reality Fair” to be held on November 18th. This is a simulation that focuses on budgeting and money management. The event is a ½ day and you will return to school by 10:30 a.m. If interested, sign up. Permission slips will follow.
  10. Team Building Activity. Carl led us with an activity designed to learn other member’s names. With the Fall Conference quickly approaching, learning names is a priority. We formed a circle with the first person saying their name and an adjective that begins with the first letter of their first name. Each consecutive person has to recite all the previous adjectives/names. When a person is unable to recite them, you start over again. Eventually, everyone does learn each other’s name. It was a lot of fun.
  11. Meeting adjourned 9:29 am
