fbla parli pro W - ... seeks first at nationals 1975-76 was a busy year for the Coolidge Chapter of Future Business Leaders of America. The chapter started its year out with the traditional initiation procedures at the city park where hot dogs and soft drinks were served to all of those making it through the initiation. As a service project FBLA members helped out our Chamber of Commerce by selling Coolidge Bicentennial T-Shirts during our town's bicentennial parade and during their lunch hours at school. Money also played an important role in the eyes of the members. Many contributed their time to working in the snack bar during the basketball season. They also made money by selling candles, Christmas table cloths, and bicentennial ashtrays. FBLA not only provided enjoyment for members, but also for the student body. On Valentines Day students were given the chance to tell their real feelings to that special someone. Members typed telegrams which were either read or sung to the person it was sent to. This year, FBLA was not all work and no play. Members were excused a day of school to participate in the Arizona Western College Regional Conference. Many who went, participated in various business events such as typing, shorthand, record keeping, and office machines. But all was not lost for the rest of the group. The campus provided tours and food facilities to keep them busy. FBLA'S Parliamentary Prodecure Team spent many hours of practice, preparing themselves for state competition which would send them on to nationals in Washington D.C. Members of the 1975-76 team were johnny Wiles, Linda Shaw, Debbie Turnbull Lise Powell, and jill Scott. During their practices the members traded offices and jobs while learning the proper way to conduct a business meeting according to Robert's Rules of Order. This year was a success for many, but for those who participated in FBLA were left with memories of joy, laughter, and excitement. 1.
