Top Jobs Work Study Group Entertains Employers Raising money to show apprecia- tion to local employers was one of the key activities for several of the business-oriented clubs this year. For fund-raising, COE members sold ads for a supplement in the Southwest Times Record in February. They also joined up with FBLA members to sell fruit in December. A banquet for COE employers was held in May. MDE members sold candybars to raise money for their employer and employee brunch and to go to Little Flock for the state conference. VICA members also sold candy in order to raise money for their employer brunch and to enter the VICA state Skill Olympics on March 30 and 31. FBLA members sold 500 cases of citrus fruit and two-year planners as their fund raising projects. During Halloween, they took baskets and cans of candy to children in the hospitals. f-ww' Games can be fun as Mrs. Sue Devero, and Seniors Jimmy Carssia, Derrel Parker, and Sean Hickman play the game Millionair.
