above L-R Josh Cannon, Bruce Marrero, Halie Wade, Casey Gore, Sarah Williams,

Amanda Fowler, placed 2nd in the Region III FCCLA Leadership Meeting February 18-19

in Waco, Texas. Thirteen FCCLA members of the local chapter participated and were

among over 1,000 other members from chapters across the state. The parliamentary proce-

dure team now have the opportunity to compete at state. Theis event required the team to

conduct a meeting as well as take a written test. Ryan Watts and Kaci Powers, right, com-

peted in Illustrated Talk with a presentation about child abuse. The event required them to

research and develop a speech and display board to illustrate the speech. They competed

against 13 other teams but did not place as a state qualifier. Ester Marquez, lower right,

competed in the event, Recycle and Redesign. Ester’s project was all about recycling cloth-

ing, by using two t-shirts in a unique way to create a new look. Her conservation theme was

“eco be-Conserve the T.” She was required to give a presentation about her project using

the sample design and a display board she designed to display the information required. Her

marketing label for the design was “2T’s in a Pod.” Ester competed against 12 others but

did not place as a state qualifier. The chapter was recognized at the first general session

Friday night for completion of Projects this year. Ester Marquez also served as the chapter

the Friday night session by Hollis Conway, a former Olympic gold medalist high jumper.

The meeting concluded on Saturday with the STAR Event award presented and the installa-

tion of new officers. Members qualifying for state competition will be participating April
