Our first FCCLA (Family, Career, & Community Leaders of America) field trip. We traveled to Adventureland for a Career Leadership Program. Our day was filled with a behind the scenes tour with a professional chef, a career panel of all of the department heads summing up what a typical day would look like, lunch, a t-shirt, and two hours on the rides. Plus it was 91 degrees on the last Saturday of September!
