FCSIFE Welcomes in the New Year!

Things are moving along here at FCSIFE. We have Regionals prep, new projects, and expansion of existing ones. Here's an update of what has been going on since holiday break:

Market Economics Project--------

A think tank was held this past friday to brain storm ideas for our new market economics project. We are looking at working with Jobs for Florida's Graduates (JFG) which directly works with those students least likely to graduate. Some great ideas were brought forth and a second think tank is scheduled for Tuesday to discuss the specifics of the project.

Expansion of Greennovators---------

Our Greennovators project will now expand into high school science fairs in order to increase the impact and reach of the program.

The Arc-------

The Arc sandwich shop is now officially named "The Traveling Lunchbox." The menu items are coming along thanks to the help of Christine who was hired to bring her culinary experience to The Arc.

Tom Rittenhouse--------

FCSIFE will have the pleasure of hosting a 'round table' event with guest speaker Tom Rittenhouse on Jan. 28th. Mr. Rittenhouse will be speaking at the Michelina’s Business Luncheon Series on the 29th bringing 37 years of experience in global supply chain management.

Legacy Goes Green-------

The eco-friendly changes have been made, a business plan has been created, and now WE'RE EXPANDING! The Legacy is looking to expand its eco-friendly business plan to St. George Street businesses.

As always, look for detailed project updates sent in the BAB newsletter.

Thanks you for your support!
