Students of our local Skills USA chapter attended the Skills USA Fall Leadership Conference September 19th in North Platte, Nebraska. Members that attended were; Dalton Buxton, Madison Gregory, Arthur Smith, Sara Mitchell, Reed Williams, Jessa Eden and Taylor Shellhouse. Students got to go on a local fish hatchery tour and see how they raise and care for fish in Nebraska. Students also went to many break-out sessions and learned about teamwork, character building, problem solving and many other characteristics associated with being a Skills USA member. Students will now choose an area of study and compete in the Skills USA Nebraska State Leadership Conference coming up in April of 2017. If they win there, they would then travel and compete at the national level in Louisville, Kentucky in June.
