Business & Economic Development Day - Madeline Brown

I enjoyed business and economic development day.  All of the presentations were very informative and helped me appreciate Fremont even more.  My favorite part of the day was listening to the presentations at the Fremont Tribune.  I also liked touring the Jayhawk box factory.  I am excited for our December session!

Business & Econ Dev Day - Hope Ludvigsen

I learned a lot from business and economic development day! I felt like it taught me a lot about work outside of high school. I enjoyed the tour of the box factory and I also liked the talk about how to improve Fremont. I feel like we (the students in YLA) really want to make a difference and make Fremont a more fun place.

Orientation/Community & Social Services Day -

Getting to see what Fremont had for those in need was something I did not know we had. The people who volunteer or work in the places we visited were kind people. I was interested in the Jefferson House, because some of my classmates live there and I got to see how they lived. Care Core was also interesting to see. 

Education Day -

Hearing all the speakers was fun. My favorite part of the day was to hear First Lady Sally Ganem talk to everyone. I thought differently of her before I met her but once I met her I noticed she was just as normal as each and every one of us. All of her stories were fun to listen to also.

Business & Economic Development Day -

I never knew Fremont was trying to get a Branding campaign so, that was interesting to learn. Then the power of a job speech had interesting facts.  I learned that most of the YLA participants do not want to come back to Fremont after college. Also the Luncheon made me feel as though I was in a job, and made me understand how a real job would feel. I also learned Fremont has Jayhawk Boxes. I did not know the importance of boxes.

Service Day

I had a great time this week. I liked setting up the Christmas tree and   in the dinning room and coloring the ornaments, it got me into the Christmas spirit! I also had a good time helping the salvation army, it made feel good for helping them out.

I had a blast ringing bells at hyvee it was sky warm and donuts were good.  Our group got a long way in our project and I liked setting up the blessing tree.

I had a great time listening to the dale Carnegie guys this week. The tour of jay hawk box was sweet and I liked seeing all the different machines for making boxes

I really enjoyed the working lunch with the Tribune staff because I learned that lunch meetings can be very productive. the tour of Jayhawk Boxes was facinating. Its great to know that companies can work together and benefit each other.

Business day was very informational! I enjoyed listening to the Dale Carnegie speakers again because they are always filled with energy. I also liked the business meeting because it was realistic and helpful for future meetings. - McKenna Hotovy
