Hillcrest BPA Officers attended the Regional Officers Meeting held at Durbin’s in Tinley Park, Illinois.  Regional schools who attended included: Oak Forest, Bremen, Tinley Park, Rich East, Rich Central and Rich South.

The Regional Officers Meeting was a great opportunity for the Hillcrest BPA Officers to meet and develop friendships with other officers from the regional schools.  During this meeting, the students had to sit at tables with students from different schools. The first activity was an interviewing activity; All BPA students had to interview an individual from another school and present them to the rest of the audience.  

After having pizza for lunch, the officers were presented with the National Logo for BPA this Year: “Spread Your Wings”.  Each table then had to work together and develop a logo to represent our region.  They had to design a poster with their logo using the BPA Torch which symbolizes worthy goals. Each group then shared their logo and an explanation with the rest of the room.

Hillcrest was represented by: Pierre Tutson, Faith Durdin, Lardell Clark, Raqeeb Yarrow, Natalie Williams, Chaleisa Butler, Alleya Arzu, Breanna Bullock, Delois Ivery, and Tia Pollard.

Overall, many friendships were developed, ideas exchanged and most importantly, Hillcrest BPA Officers continue to gain experience in the business world.
