Our core focus has remained consistent and is captured in our mission.
That is the first thing Deca Posts on their website. It is an amazing learning opportunity and career building organization. I've had the pleasure of joining the Deca ranks this last year that I've been back in school. I've even been able to participate in the State level competition. Where my partner Kim and I placed first in our event for Advertising Campaign. We qualify for nationals in Washington D.C!
I've never been to D.C. so needless to say I'm super excited to go.....
BUT (isn't there always a but?)
It costs a lot of money to go to ICDC :( And its just not in the budget for Ridgewater's Deca group.
Alas! I came up with a gofundme page where I'm collecting donations and support for Nationals. If you are interested in helping or even just spreading the word the link for my fundraiser is: http://www.gofundme.com/7bg4mo
Yes I'm going to be one of those people who push their stuff. But really this is very important to me. And I really don't want funding to be the only reason I couldn't go.
On a side note, I'm reproofing my book. I'm resisting the urge to scrap it and start fresh! I call that progress!!!!
Well gotta go get ready for class.... last few classes before spring break!
Take care everyone
