Worth County FBLA had one team advance to Nationals. Sophomores: Tate Welch, Keelin Engel, and Jill Hardy placed 2nd in the state of their competition called E-Business. The team was tasked with creating a unique business idea that could be marketed and sold online. Their business was called Midwest Survival that specialized in selling camping survival vacations using their own land here in Worth County. In addition to creating a working website they also had to give a 7 minute presentation that discussed the planning and development of the website. The team hopes to compete in San Antonio, Texas at the end of June but due to conflicts with National FCCLA it might not be logistically possible.
Also placing at state, for the second year in the row was junior Zoey Morin. Zoey competed in Database Design and Applications. This test has two parts, one where she took a 1 hour test over database concepts and terms and another 1 hour test where she had to create a physical database with tables, queries, and reports. Our final team placing at state consisted of Juniors Lauren Moore and Meredith Spiers. Lauren and Meredith competed in the competition of Public Service Announcement where they created a 30 second video over the importance of developing soft skills in young employees. In addition to the video they gave a five minute presentation that showcased their video along with their planning and development process. While at state the FBLA members got to experience workshops, keynote speakers, some laser tag and almost made it out of an Escape Room. Next up for our local FBLA will be electing next year's officers and selling our annual Palisade Colorado Peaches.
