This year, FBLA members will:

Membership:

Open to students that have taken OR are enrolled in a business course

*Fund raising is an important activity in Welsh High School FBLA.It is how we generate the revenue to pay for busses and subs when going to events and field trips. If you would rather not fund raise, then choose the OPT-OUT option.

The Welsh High FBLA club will pay the entry fee to the District Conference by December 1, 2019 for the event that is held on January 24, 2020. If a member signs up for an event, turns in a permission slip, and commits to go, his or her entry is paid by the club. If the member decides not to go to the event, after the entry fees have been sent to the State FBLA club, that member will be responsible for reimbursing the entry fee to the club.

A member who holds an office in the Welsh High School FBLA club must attend all meetings. FBLA Club meets during 6^th hour on club days. Club days are:

Sept. 10 Oct 8 Nov 12 Dec 10 Jan 7 Feb 4 Mar 10 (subject to testing) Apr 7 (subject to testing)

**District V Conference: January 24, 2020, McNeese State University, Lake Charles
