FBLA The Future Business Leaders of America QFBLAJ, a national youth organization for any high school student enrolled in a busi- ness course, held many activities through- out the school year. The activities were di- vided into six different areas: leadership, community, service, fund raising, school scholarship support, and skills competition. Some of the group's activities included building the float which was in the Home- coming Parade, and their only fund raiser, the Type-a-thon. The Type-a-thon raised money to enable a scholarship to be given to a business student, and to help defray the cost of sending students to regional competitions at Howard Vo-tech and Ocean City. The winners ofthe FBLA Type- a-thon were Jennifer Wessendorf, Gwyn Galdo, and Bill Olver. L-1.4 '---I L-...J 1: 4 , A 4 Members of the FBLA are hard at work discus- sin-Ig the activities planned.
