2010 Regional Officer Leadership Conference

        On July 6, 2010, The South Coast Regional Officers, along with Mr. Beard and Ms. Thompson, embarked on a four day adventure that will forever be remembered. A little after noon they all arrived at Bass Lake to attend the 2010 Regional Officer Leadership Conference (ROLC). The conference began with a Patriotic Observance provided by the State Officers. Regional Officers laid their heads on pillows after a day that was filled with meeting new people, great laughs, and fulfilled expectations. As the days came, the conference became a place of growth as well as a place where many memories will be forever remembered by all in attendance. Whether it was through the workshops held, Patriotic Observances, Ag. Issues Presentations, Regional Theme Skits, Team Time, Pump-Up Videos, or Reflections with the State Officers, the South Coast Regional Officers learned so much about themselves, their teammates, and their new friends.

        South Coast received many laughs from their Theme Skit which will be preformed again at the 2010 South Coast Region Chapter Officer Leadership Conference. Many said that the laughter brought tears to their eyes. South Coast also performed an Agriculture Issues Presentation on Animal Rights vs. Animals Welfare.

        By the end of the conference on July 9th, the South Coast Regional Officer Team become even closer as a family and looks forward to providing SCR members with exciting conferences, events, and many memories that will continue to be made.
