Crater’s First State Officer »
This year at the State Career Development Conference, new state officers were chosen to continue the legacy of the officers before them. Cecilia De La Cruz represents District 3 and Crater High School proudly, as the state of Oregon’s newest Publicity Director. She won the masses over with her campaign and the slogan “Cici Si Si”. She was inaugurated in front of her peers during the closing ceremony for the 2009 – 2010 State Career Development Conference.
Winter Districts: Wait did that really happen?
Crater’s star team went to Southern Oregon University to compete in this year’s Winter district completion. After a meeting with the president of the University and a delightful tour of the campus, the events began. After the testing and role play’s had finished, a small gap of time allowed the chapters to socialize while the winners were determined. This years Winter Districts went astoundingly well, and the state competition is just around the corner.
