Dell Rapids FCCLA

 

FCCLA, 426 2.jpgThe South Dakota FCCLA (Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America) Meeting was held on April 22-24, 2012, in Sioux Falls.  Over 1500 members, advisors, and parents and chaperones were in attendance with over 1100 members from across the state from 70 chapters competing in various STAR Events.  The theme of the meeting was “Extreme Makeover FCCLA”.  There were three general sessions.  Jamie Utt was the keynote speaker for the first general session whose address centered around his theme “Are You the 100th Monkey?”   During the second general session Children’s Miracle Network gave a presentation with families who had received help from CMN while a family member was  hospitalized or being treated.   SD FCCLA chapters each made donations to CMN since it was chosen as their state project for the year.  Various workshops were held FCCLA, 430 2.jpgthroughout the day on Sunday and Monday.

April Erdman from Dell Rapids who served as the State Vice President of Recreation ended her term during the installation ceremony held at the last general session.  She and the other 9 state officers were responsible for organizing and presiding at the meeting.  She also had the responsibility to organize the Talent Show.  Morgan Kistler and Stephanie Dennis each performed a solo during this program.

The Dell Rapids FCCLA Chapter received the Merit Chapter Award for their overall accomplishments for the year.  They were one of the eleven chapters who received this award.  They were also recognized as the second place chapter for community service.  They received recognition for their contributions to our state project which was Children's Miracle Network.  Branden Jastram was recognized for completing all 5 modules of the Power of One program.  He will also receive recognition at the national level for this accomplishment.  

Individuals who received a Gold Rating and Top Superiors were April Erdman in the Recycle and Redesign category; Lexi Snyder in the Chapter Showcase Display category; FCCLA, 432 2.jpgBeth Bruggeman in the Illustrated Talk category and she also advanced into the runoff competition for nationals; and Stephanie Dennis in the Recycle and Redesign category.  Aubrey Kimball and Morgan Kistler received a Gold Rating on their Illustrated Talks.  Branden received a Silver Rating on his Job Interview.

  • Yesterday the varsity girls track team competed in the Big Sioux Conference Track Meet. The girls Medley Relay team of Karen Eddy, Kelli Siemonsma, Corynn Hoff, and Brittney Schlaikjer finished 2nd. Cassidy Wright finished 3rd in the disc and 5th in the shot. The 3200m relay team of Schlaakjer, Hannah Fielder, Lexi Snyder, and Hoff finished 3rd and in the 100m hurdles Morgan Hoglund finished 7th.  It was a beautiful blue sky and nearly 80 degrees, but that darn wind howled again over 20 mph. I think all the girls have gotten used to it, however, because the scores were strong today.  Spring Creek's greens are much larger than we see on most courses so our putt count was little higher than normal, but that didn't stop Brianna (84), April (103) and Natasha (110) from setting their career lows - I was extra  proud of those girls today.Natasha and April were actually in a playoff today for our last varsity spot and even though April edged her out, Natasha really competed and made her earn it. Emily (86) and Bri really stepped up today and played clean golf while Hannah (94) put together her 2nd strong round in a row.  Lexie (94) is battling a little knee "tweak" right now but she was able to grind out a decent score - she is a tough one and will certainly not let it affect her at Monday's region. Our team total (3rd place) was a respectable 358 and were going to need that to move down a few strokes as we hit the post-season.
  • This week is TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK!  On behalf of the students, classified staff, and administrators of DRHS, I would like to thank our outstanding teachers for the work they do.  I could not ask for a more professional and dedicated group of educators to work with.  We are blessed to have you!!  ~Ms.Kludt
  • Congratulations to the Class of 2012!!  2012 Commencement Exercises will be @ 2pm tomorrow! 
  • Have a great summer!!!

  • Yesterday the varsity girls track team competed in the Dells Invite.  Second place finishers were: Cassidy Wright in disc.  Third place finishers were: Cassidy Wright in shot; Mikaela Stofferahn in disc; 3200m relay team of Brittney Schlaikjer, Karlie Leighton, Jessica Tisher, Lexi Snyder; Tisher in the 3200m run; 1600m relay team of Schlaikjer, Karen Eddy, Rachel Devlin, Kelli Siemonsma.  Fourth place finishers were: Morgan Hoglund in high jump and 100m hurdles; Lexi Snyder in the 1600m run.  Fifth place finishers were: 800m relay team of Eddy, Kiah Schumaker, Sarah Haak, and Devlin; Siemonsma in the 100m dash.  Sixth place finishers were: Stofferahn in shot; Schumaker in the high jump; Nikki Bunkers in the long jump; Brittney Siemonsma in the disc; 400m relay team of Eddy, Schumaker, Haak, and Siemonsma. 
  • We had some flooding in Dells and had to turn our meet into playing the front 9 twice - which didn't seem to affect a whole lot. The wind, however, did have an effect.  That wind, blowing over 20 mph most of the day, made it difficult for everyone but I was proud of how we scored.  Several of our girls really stepped up as SFC was their usuall stellar selves and Canton and Dak Valley put up some good numbers.  Lexie has continued her consistent leadership near the top (85) and Emily shot her season best (88).  Hannah really came through as Canton, Dells and Dak Valley were tied after the first 3 scores were in - Her 91 took us to that 2nd place finish. I was also proud of April Tomes (108) who shot her career low and really seems to be improving nicely. Brianna rounded out the squad with a 95 which is a bit higher than she is used to but was a bit under the weather today.
