According to club ad visor Jean Collins, larger schools have FBLA classes. Smaller schools like Hep pner run the program as a club, with limited funds and kids working on their own or with some help from advisors like Collins. Limited means haven’t held back students like Pappas, who was one of 10 Heppner FBLA members who qualified for the state level of competition after competing in the regional competitions in La Grande recently. The state competi tion consisted of online tests in a “myriad” of business- related subjects ranging from accounting to admin istration to security. It was Pappas’s performance in the cyber-security test that earned him third place at the state level and a chance to attend nationals in San Antonio, TX in June. Pappas is the second person Collins knows of from H eppner who has qualified for nationals (the first was Ashley Wolf sev eral years ago). However, he is the first to attend the national event. That could be because, according to Collins, the difficult part is only beginning. Wi t h no scholarship Conner program s, Pappas students who wish to compete at the national level have to pay for everything them selves...a hefty chunk of change that includes reg istration, airfare, hotel and meals. Pappas will be stay ing in a hotel with other Oregon students, since, with so many kids attending nationals, the FBLA groups them according to state. With local FBLA cof fers depleted after sending kids to regional and state competitions, Collins says Pappas is largely on his own, trying to raise money in only a couple of months through local fundraisers. He is currently raising mon ey through bake sales, but is looking for other money raising opportunities. Collins says having to pay their own way makes it difficult for kids to move on through the levels of com petition, but she’s really excited at Pappas’ success so far. “I’m pretty excited; this is the first one of our kids to go,” she says. lone preschool holds visitation Creative Care Preschool in lone will hold a visitation day on May 14 at 4 p.m. The visitation is for children who will be three and four years old on or before September 1. Parents are asked to bring immunization records and birth certificates for their children. Snacks and activities will be provided.
