FBLA' Ahq J-ffnigf .fgiqhi-5Em51H'i'- ' -L: - There's No Business Like Our Business In the future, our world will be run by ourselves as well as our peers. Social aspects will be molded as well as eco- nomics which is equitable in impor- tance. Businesses are a major compo- nent of the economic world. Under the guidance of well equipped leaders, busi- nesses enable our economy to decline or progress. The Future Business Leaders of America and Junior Achievement are two clubs, that are keyed in to aiding students interested in business, spon- sored numerous activities for its mem- bers. They participated in county and district competitions, such as typing, accounting, and office procedures. In October, FBLA members held a Hal- loween party for the pediatric ward at All decked out for FBLA . . , On initiation day for FBLA, Julie Rigsby, Jennifer Phillips and show everyone that they support FBLA. Send in the clowns . . . President of FBLA, Ted- dy Daniels, and Robert Records are ecstatic at the prospect of entertaining the pediatric ward at Cape Fear Hospital on Halloween. 14 clubs Cape Fear Valley Medical Center. The members, dressed in costumes, passed out candy and played games with the children. When the month of Novem- ber rolled around, bringing with it the festive holiday season, FBLA donated food and toys to a needy family and performed carols for the patients at a nursing home. FBLA week was in Feb- ruary. FBLA's annual fashion show and the election of a new president. Junior Achievement goes a step fur- ther in shaping businessmen and wom- en. Over the course of 15 weeks, the Achievers form their own company in which they buy stock. The company dis- tributes a product whose profits in- crease the value of the company's stock. This year they sold several products: handmade Christmas ornaments, lolli- pops, and senior t-shirts. They profited over a thousand dollars. At the end of the 15 weeks, the stock is liquidated, allowing the stockholders to receive dividends. Earning money from one's company is quite an incentive and it goes directly back to the achievers. Last year Pine Forestis J.A. compa- ny, Universal Trends, won company of the year for Eastern Carolina. This year, Prospects Unlimited, hoped to do as well. Both FBLA and Junior Achievement go hand in hand. Though they have many differences, the concept is the same. There's a bright future in busi- ness, and there's no business like our business.
