Skills USA Leadership Conference
Last weekend, I went to my firs Skills USA function. I was impressed by the energy the students involved put forth. Being a sports coach, I saw a true competitive spirit there and I enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I was not very happy with the location, but that will be changing soon I hear. I think Savannah would be a good alternative. I did learn a lot about the organization and how much work goes on behind the scenes. I feel a lot better prepared to sale the group to my students now.
AS I was saying in my blog, I am not too pleased with the conference. The last two trips have been okay. I am going to miss the beach, but I thinking moving is a good idea because there is nothing on the island and if people had a bus driver like ours, we couldn't even get anything to eat. Glad you enjoyed.
