Club Assembly
Micah updated the group about the survey being prepared. He will have the link to everyone and a paper copy next week.
Chad Laws, Burlington Police Department, accepted the donations for the Junior Police Academy. Donations were made by the club, Brian Dement, and the Western Alamance Interact Club.
The Western Alamance Interact Club members gave an update on their activities and thanked the club for their assistance. They have 59 paid members now. They conducted over 400 hours of community service, collected 1200 cans of food, sent 8 members to the High Point University Leadership Academy, received their international charter and held a pinning ceremony, and raised money for the Junior Police Academy. Their goals for the next year are to hold a 5K, perform service at a retirement home, and develop a large project that involves all of the clubs of Western Alamance High School.
