M-PBEA Member Update

I hope that your school year is off to a good start!

The M-PBEA Executive Board met for their annual fall meeting on Sept 24. Committees met and gave reports and updates on the various fingers of our organization. Minutes from these meetings can be found on our website under the "Board" tab.

One thing to note regarding this meeting:

It was determined that our plan of having our annual conference in conjunction with the NBEA convention in 2023 is not going to work out. Our board originally agreed to try this as an option due to the fact that the NBEA Convention will be held in our region this year (Kansas City) and we wanted to support attendance at both events. We have since been made aware that 3 of the states within our region have state-wide FBLA conventions at the same time. With so many of our members being FBLA advisers, this would greatly decrease the number of potential attendees from our region. For these reasons, we have decided to forego the joint conference in Kansas City and instead we will plan our tradition of a summer conference in our region. We do support and encourage M-PBEA members to attend the NBEA convention in April and hope to see many of you there!

The board is working now on planning our annual summer conference in a Symposium format. At this time, we are exploring cities and sites for this event. More details on this conference will be coming very soon. For now, mark your calendar to attend this event in June and begin the approval process for travel!

We value the personal connections and friendships that members in M-PBEA have created and so look forward to this time to get together each year.

More details will follow in the next few weeks.
