SLC Week One was an event to remember! This was the teams first 'big thing'...we were going to get to do what we have been waiting all weekend for! The anticipation finally broke when the first bus load of members arrived and before we knew it, we were surrounded by FFA members from all across our beautiful state of North Carolina.
After testing the water some by assisting the Past State Officers with their workshops early on in the week, Wednesday and Thursday became a true test to myself and the other officers...we would be presenting our very first leadership workshops that ranged from time management and goals to public relations. We flew through the workshops with flying colors...
Wednesday rounded on us, and we knew that Wednesday Night Live would have to be a memorable event...Between Justin, Daniel, Alycia, Elizabeth, Cory and myself, we knew we were going to have to really work hard to impress this crowd of well versed FFA members...Justin and Ben jammed out on the guitar and drums accompanied by Jamie-a camper-singing some good ol' AC/DC tunes, followed closely by "Van Down By the River" starring Cory Wade as Matt Foley, Elizabeth Eastep as mom, Daniel Alvey as dad, Justin McEntyre as the son, and myself as the daughter. Daniel and Alycia did an outstanding number called the Spartan Cheer (memorable!). And the event was closed out by this years outstanding camp staff who did "JCPenny".
SLC was such an outstanding event, and I thoroughly enjoyed the time I had to bond with my Small Group who was on the 360 track where we developed our leadership skills through keeping a positive attitude, extending kindness, preserving, and focus...Fire and Ice was such an enthusiastic group ready to learn and willing to input at every available opportunity.
I will forever remember SLC Week one, this was a great way to start out my year as a North Carolina State FFA Officer and I thank each and every FFA Member that attended...you all are going to have a great year and I look forward to seeing each of you throughout the rest of the year!
