HV is officially in business and getting ready for another great year. While things felt a little “off” the first day, day 2 proved to be a ripper! We got into the full swing of things as we prepare for the arrival of the next crop of FBLA superstars to arrive next week. What an exciting opportunity we have this year…we are seeking to defend our State Title and bring home our 10th in a row! It is not going to be easy, but with a lot of hard work, determination and learning, we can do it! We plan to hit the ground running with some major chapter projects, BAA’s and that hardworking Mustang spirit. We are ready to rumble, so bring it!
We have submitted our national projects! With this task complete and the end of the school year just around the corner, one would think that we would be settling down. Haha! Seems like we have more woork now than at any time during the year.
Speeches for NLC, a national officer campaign, mustang preview, Perkins Program of Study, open house, relay for life, chapter officer elections, ecp projects, fair planning, final exams, BAAs, awards of excellence night, projects for next year, Fisher’s Conference, closing the store and concessions for the summer, arena scheduling, a VIP visiting our program, graduation and all the end of year tasks. Whew!
Add to all this the fact that we don’t know when we are going to end the year, and what we have on our hands is a train wreck…lol.
Thanks to everyone for their hard work and support of our successful year. Hard to believe we are starting the campaign to win our tenth title in a row before we have even wrapped up the current year! We have some amazing kids on a mission, seems they were not satisfied and want to really make next year special!
Lee Spargo deserves a special shout out as he has been in the classroom on a nearly daily basis to work with speeches! Gotta love his commitment and representation of the Grants Pass Kiwanis and Toastmasters. Woo whoo…Thanks Lee!

Several Dreamweaver students have been asking about webhosting. Mr Fisher owns a webhost, but to avoid a conflict of interest, the following two hosts are recommended. They both provide great service, options and affordable pricing.
There are so many things to like about each of these, but they are two of the top rated hosts in the WORLD! So, there is no going wrong
