Need a way to get new members, find new activities, or spice up your chapter? This year, a Chapter Resource Guide has been created to assist with all of those things and more! Split into seven sections, it will give you all the information you need on how to run a first-class chapter.
The first five sections are for membership recruitment, business development, fundraising, community service, and chapter events. Ideas, such as club fairs, ice cream socials, and presentations, give your chapter an edge to gain members, because they give members something to be interested in! At these events you are able to use 30-second prepared speeches about what FBLA is, and these can be found towards the end of the guide. Spread between the five sections are 58 different ways to increase participation in all aspects of chapter life.
The last two sections discuss the state and national projects for the year. The first section covers projects like Member of the Month, Ready? Set. Recruit! and Gold Seal. This gives a lot of information about these different projects and gives everyone a chance to be more involved at the state and national levels. The Chapter Resource Guide really is a wonderful resource for new or established chapters because there are so many ideas to implement.
