Efforts Pag OH' at State Convention The hard work of the FBLA paid off when mem- bers attended the State Convention in Burlington in March. Enosburg competed in many events, but the real excitement was due to Jeff Hayes and Flay Car- penter who ran for state offices. Jeff was elected Northern Regional Vice-President and Flay was elected State Treasurerg both were chosen by wide margins. The convention wound up with a banquet and installation of the new officers. Also, the various awards from competitions were announced. Enos- burg won the greatest number of awards of any high school in the state competing, and the Enosburg table was by far the rowdiest.

Future Business Leaders of America This year, under the direction of advisor, Mrs. Joyce Twing, FBLA was one of the most active and well organized groups in the school. The FBLA reopened the school bookstore, offer- ing a wide variety of candy, snacks and school sup- plies. FBLA made a good profit, even though they had to help the store account from the previous year out of debt at the same time. ln October, the New England Regional Conven- tion was held in Burlington. Several Enosburg Chap- ter members attended this meeting where they par- ticipated in workshops and seminars. The members also raised funds by selling Tom Wat and Abigail Martin Kits in November and December. They made S500 for their efforts. FBLA also sponsored a Type-A'Thon and door-to- door candy sales to raise money for their convention expenses.
