Millard South 40 Assets

The Millard South 40 Asset group traveled to Cincinnati, Ohio last week to attend the HC HY Conference and watched our kids shine once again. Our five officers presented on how our student group works in front of an audience of approximately 75 youth and adults. Their ability to explain how our group started, what we do and where they want it to go was absolutely amazing. Jill and I were so proud of how they answered questions and truly promoted the asset message. If you see Elizabeth Connolly, Ally Weaver, Emily Kilcoin, Moriah Thompson, and Brittany Yenney tell them you have heard incredible things about them. Hailey Bedore, Jayme Gorat, and Hana Kendic also attended the conference and brought back tons of ideas to help improve our group and make it better than ever.
