ELS Expectations by President Laura

Hey Florida DECA!
Today I’m going to talk to you about ELS expectations. Well for starters, this year’s Emerging Leadership Summit is October 26-28th in St.Pete’s Tradewinds Resort. This resort is an amazing time with many activities! The first thing to prepare for ELS is the attendance of your chapter! When advertising for ELS, the most effective way is to use members who have went to Florida ELS in the past. Remember housing and registration is due September 24th. The other important preparation is to advertise and collect Helping Hands. During the conference expect some competition preparation where there will be a little competition with prize medals! There will also be more workshops held by state officers on subjects to benefit your chapter. And don’t forget of course we have time to go to Busch Gardens with everyone at ELS! This is an inexpensive trip and amazing for new DECA members to become involved. I hope to see you all at ELS, if you have any questions contact me at laura@fldeca.org. Till next time Florida DECA!
