THE FUTURE OF BUSINESS, LEADERSHIP AND INNOVATION

"Educate. Motivate. Innovate.” That was the inspiring call-to-action put to 17 members of Minisink Valley’s Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) at the annual fall meeting for the state’s FBLA District 3N, on Oct. 5.

"I learn something new each year I attend the fall District Meeting and this year was no exception,” said Evan Stouber, MV’s FBLA President. “I had a great time and met many new members."

Keynote speaker, Mario Nacinovich, a managing partner at Axon Communications, commanded the full attention of FBLA members with a riveting speech around the organization’s theme for the 2018-19 school year: “Educate. Motivate. Innovate.”
