"Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy." - Norman Schwarzkopf
What's(over)due: The Scavenger Hunt! See item #2, below.
At our next meeting: We'll wrap up our values and leadership discussion, debate more current events, and start looking ahead to our first conference!
Here's what else you need to know this week:
1.) A new article for this week's meeting: Read this article or listen to the interview about one of the most powerful people in the Legislature that you've probably never heard of.
2.) Complete this scavenger hunt and you might win a prize! Not enough folks have joined the Google Classroom or done the scavenger hunt. Find some time to check this off your to-do list. Complete this scavenger hunt by Wednesday at 6pm and you may win a set of California icon lapel pins (one winner per delegation). Fun! Here's what you'll need to do:
- Check out this list of websites that you'll be using this year to write and research bills and stay informed about California policy and politics.
- Join our CapCo google classroom. Note: you may need to use a personal email address rather than your school email address if your school uses google classroom!
- Complete the Scavenger Hunt assignment by Wed, Oct 21 at 6pm for your chance to win!
3.) Zoom Link: here's this week's Zoom meeting link. Officers should log on at 6pm. All other delegates will be admitted to the meeting at 6:30pm. CHECK YOUR EMAIL FOR THE LINK
