The Eads High School Future Business Leaders of America chapter held a baked potato dinner Tuesday, November 9, at the Community Building. The dinner was held as a community-service project for the American Red Cross and as a fundraiser for the EHS FBLA Chapter, with 75% of the proceeds going to help the victims of the hurricanes that took place earlier this year. The chapter served about 200 people and raised $550 for the Hurricane Disaster Relief Fund. The FBLA Chapter would like to thank the community for their support of us and the American Red Cross and would like to thank the members and parents who made it possible.

The EHS FBLA Chapter would also like to inform everyone that coffee sales are still going on and if you are interested in buying coffee but haven’t been visited by an FBLA member yet, the coffee can be purchased by contacting an FBLA member or Mrs. Ellenberger at 438-2214. Proceeds from the coffee sales will go towards the FBLA State Conference in Vail, CO in April.
