At SLC, the two young ladies presented their campaign and received a bronze medal for their efforts.Landrie Reese, sophomore, and Paytin Peterson, freshmen, presented about our FCCLA chapter with the Chapter in Review STAR Event. The pair received a bronze medal. Cheyenne McGuire and Tayler Clarkson—both seniors—participated in the Illustrated Talk STAR Event. Tayler and Cheyenne chose to teach their students a practical skill: swing dancing. After presenting their year-long effort to the judges, Tayler and Cheyenne received a gold medal. Finally, Akron FCCLA said goodbye to their local state officer, Cheyenne McGuire. Throughout the year, she has been responsible for presenting to FCCLA chapters across the state, running State Executive Council meetings, and educating adults about FCCLA.
