Hello FCCLA members! I hope your school year is off to a
great start. I’m writing the blog this week to tell you a little about myself!
Since FCCLA’s central focus is family, I think it’s fitting
to start my blog spot off by telling you about my family. My family and I are extremely close. Whether
it’s family vacations in the summer or supporting a family member at a sporting
event, we do almost everything together. My parents, Marty and Teri, work
locally in our town. My father is an accountant for a midwest grocery store and
my mother is a senior pastor at one of our churches here in Brookings, South
Dakota. I am the youngest of five siblings. My siblings include Taylor, 24; Alyssa, 22;
Alec, 20; and my twin sister, Emily, who is 18. I am truly blessed with the
family I have and love spending every minute with them.
Throughout my childhood in South Dakota, I loved playing all
types of sports. From basketball to soccer, I tried it all. I also loved acting
as a young kid as well. In high school, I have been involved with numerous
extracurricular activities. I run on the track team, play basketball and
volleyball, am a member of our school’s Student Council, and am a member of our
school’s improvisational troupe that performs skits about the issues young kids
and high school students are facing today.
But hey, enough about me! I can’t wait to see what each and
every one of you will accomplish this year in FCCLA. Whether you decide to
compete in STAR Events or challenge the status quo in a National Program, I
encourage you all to get involved with FCCLA! Our National Cluster Meetings are
coming soon to a state near you! For more information, check out the national
website. I hope I see you all there!
In FCCLA spirit,
Elliot Johnson
2012-2013 National FCCLA President
