Gibbon FBLA officers attend retreat
On July 20, the new Gibbon FBLA officers team met at Harmon Park in Kearney and then at the Kearney Public Library to discuss this year’s upcoming FBLA events and plan the 2023-24 Program of Work. The officers participated in a team building activity, dinner, dessert, and then a planning meeting. Officer and chapter monthly meetings were scheduled, and they discussed the 2024 officer election process and campaigning, the new FBLA logo, and increased national and state membership dues, which were important topics. The fall recruitment drive will ask returning members to pay $20 and new members will pay $25 which includes an FBLA t-shirt.
