LEISURE TIME We had a few car troubles, but we had fun with it!

Our advisor, Mrs. Purvis, took us to eat and bowling on our free time. We had lots of fun and bonded with our chapter members.

Although the workshops were very fun and exciting, we

definitely enjoyed our free time to joke around and relax with our friends, chapter members, and

our awesome advisor.

CLOSING SESSIONAt closing session, we

talked about what we all learned at the

workshops and what we learned at the FOCUS

Training with Nick Johnson.

We also had a Miracle Minute where we raised hundreds of dollars for MDA and our State President, Kurdeshia Meyers, and our State Vice President, Hunter Landry, both got a pie in the face!
