FCCLA 

Aubree Palmer

Amazing opportunities and fun times are overflowing when it comes to Malad High School’s FCCLA Chapter! The first meeting of the year saw many friendly faces interested in Family Career and Community Leaders of America. Excited to sell cotton candy and other fundraising opportunities, many new members are ready to participate and help around the community. 

For community members who attended the Suicide Awareness Walk, FCCLA supplied walking tacos and churro crumble-inspired cookies. 

For the first official FCCLA lunch meeting, many new members were welcomed back with eager anticipation of activities to come. 

The opening social will be Friday, September 20th from 6 to 9 pm. A movie and caramel apple dipping will be a blast while getting comfortable in the commons with a BYOB policy (bring your own blanket). 

Chapter officers will be enjoying a retreat this weekend in Pocatello to come closer as a team, and prepare for BASIC training on October 8th. Proud to rep the red and white, FCCLA chapter members are hoping to see you at football games, volleyball games, and other events to come buy some delicious cinnamon rolls, cake pops, crumble-inspired cookies, and other mouth-watering treats!
