District VIII FCCLA Meeting

By: Katie Arbach 

            The Hoven FCCLA Chapter attended the 2014 District FCCLA Meeting, which was held on Monday, January 20, 2014 in Gettysburg.  The theme for this years meeting was “Discover the Hero in You,” focusing on Super Heroes.  There were a variety of activities done throughout the meeting to get the members involved and interested. We had a chapter challenge where you had to find puzzle pieces hidden around the gym and put the puzzle together that represented a super hero.  Tyler Fisher from Gettysburg was the guest speaker who talked about the pillars in life to become a hero.  Bailey Zweber competed in Job Interview and received a gold and will go on to compete at State FCCLA in April.       

            Five members from the Hoven FCCLA Chapter attended the District 8 meeting.  The members participated in workshops, attended STAR Events, and had a great time.  Bailey Zweber represented Hoven FCCLA very well being a district officer.  Bailey was Co-Chair for District 8.  Katie Arbach held a workshop focusing on careers for her Peer Education team.  

            Upcoming events for the Hoven FCCLA Chapter is FCCLA Week, Family Prom on March 28^th, Large Group and FCCLA Open House on April 14^th, and competing at State FCCLA at the end of April.
