The Logan County High School Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) chapter held their annual Day of Service on Dec. 7. Club officers and members-- 35 in total-- visited multiple organizations in the community with the mission to serve. Sites for the 2022-2023 school year included Agape, Creekwood, Good Samaritan, Head Start, and Active Day Center.
While out, club members helped make Christmas bags for the Creekwood Nursing Home residents as well as Auburn Healthcare residents and spent time with wonderful people at HeadStart and Active Day. Thereafter the chapter hosted a Christmas get-together.
Later, the chapter met at Russellville Park to hold the last club meeting of 2023. At the meeting, club members shared exciting news and memories about Day of Service adventures and the year overall. Then the meeting was followed by lunch and club bonding/team-building activities.
All in all, the club had a very exciting and successful year.
