Fifty-two Gallatin FBLA members joined over 5,000 students from across the state in Springfield for the Missouri FBLA State Leadership Conference April 13-16. The students’ main focus was competitive events where they could earn the right to compete at the National Leadership Conference this summer in San Antonio, Texas. Events range from Accounting I to Website Design, with Economics, Public Speaking, and Social Media mixed in between. Overall, FBLA is home to more than 70 events. The Gallatin High School chapter is under the direction and support of adviser Mrs. Barb Holcomb.
There were several highlights to the conference! First to open the Missouri FBLA State Leadership Conference, Sarabeth Michael, a senior at GHS, was selected to sing the national anthem on stage for the opening session. Next, Cyd Terry of Terry Implement Company was recognized on stage as Business Person of the Year. Maddi Michael, a sophomore at GHS, campaigned and won the office for 2019-2020 Missouri FBLA State Secretary. Finally, at the conclusion of the conference the Gallatin FBLA chapter was awarded the statewide spirit gavel for the fifth consecutive year!
