From the National Officer Team: September Sweeps & Regional Board Apps!

The National Officer Team is excited to "ignite innovation" in the upcoming FBLA year! As your Mountain Plains Region Vice President, I am even more excited to represent Nebraska FBLA on the national level! 

September Sweeps - I know many advisers and members are looking forward to the September Sweeps recruitment program. The program will be featuring benchmark activities such as:

• Recruiting 5 paid freshmen members
• Developing and implementing a recruitment and retention marketing plan
• Plus several other activities designed to help recruit and retain members

     All chapter delegates that complete the September Sweeps Program and attend the NFLC will receive a ribbon! Chapter presidents will also receive a special pin. 

     Note: A form is still being generated for the program. It will be available on the Mountain Plains Regional website by clicking here as soon as it is available. 

Regional/National Board Applications - Regional and National Board Applications are still being accepted! Being a member of these boards is a fantastic way to become involved in FBLA on the national level!  Click here to download a copy of the application. The deadline is September 1st!

Until next time,

Brent

Welcome, welcome, welcome!

Hello! And as the title mentions, welcome!

The 2012-2013 Nebraska FBLA State Officer Team is excited to start off the new school year with a new blog! Throughout the year, you will find weekly blog posts discussing state projects, FBLA activities, leadership, and a whole lot more. :)

I encourage each of you to follow this blog to stay updated as Nebraska FBLA "Ignites Innovation" in the coming year; moreover, links to new blog posts will also be posted on the Nebraska FBLA Facebook page as well as on the @NebraskaFBLA Twitter page.

One final note to members and chapters whom have already started or will be starting the new school year: check out the Nebraska FBLA State Goals - you may find a new project that could be implemented in your chapter this year or a new goal to work towards!

This year in FBLA is going to be extraordinary, but it relies on you as a member of Nebraska FBLA. Get involved and become a leader in your school or community! I can not wait to see what Nebraska FBLA accomplishes as we "Ignite Innovation" this year.

Good luck with your many ventures in the year ahead! And keep watching for next week's blog post. :)
