NEWPORT — Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) members from Lake Region Union High School celebrated their continued excellence at the Vermont Spring Leadership Conference on March 15, earning the title of 2024 Vermont Outstanding Chapter of the Year for the fifth consecutive year and the tenth time since 2009.
During the event, several students from the Lake Region chapter stood out by placing in various competitions.
The conference included workshops and speeches by keynote speakers, providing valuable learning and networking opportunities for the attendees.
This year, the chapter also successfully raised over $12,000 through its major fundraisers, the apple project and fudge project.
These initiatives, which encompass a full marketing cycle, support the students’ ambitions to participate in state, national, and international business events.
The funds raised will help cover expenses for their upcoming business trip to Italy and Greece, marking the chapter’s first international venture.
