Onward

Flagler SIFE has welcomed 10 incredible new members to the team since the semester began a few weeks ago. We are so excited by the enthusiasm and drive these new members already have for SIFE and our projects. Some of our new members have even designed and started working on an extremely ambitions project for next year that will be an amazing opportunity for Flagler SIFE.

In addition to new members the team has been busy with projects and competition preparation. This has been a hectic past two weeks, here are some of our biggest team updates for the past week:

The biggest accomplishment this week is the completion and submission of all 6 of our Individual Topic Competition (ITCs)! We will find out at regionals if we finaled in any of the ITC categories we submitted, regional ITC finalists receive a trophy and prize money during the award ceremony. In addition to getting past this first competition hurdle, completion of ITCs means that we have framed our projects and are ready to start writing the script.

Our Ethics Training Program for Winmark is complete along with the accompanying supplemental information packet. Last year's video was great, and this years video is even better! Jessica, Kameron and Katie will be leaving Sunday February 14th to go to Las Vegas to present the video and supplemental information packet at Winmark's conference and trade show.

The Suruwat video will be filmed this Friday and Saturday and we are having fun preparing to make our second "major motion picture" of the year :)

We held auditions for Consumer Cadets and Conservation Cadets last week and were overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the community and the great kids who came out for casting. We will begin filming both segments next week.

These updates are just a glimpse into what we have been doing the past week. We would like to thank everyone who has been working with us on these and our other projects!
