Exactlytwenty years later, the battalion held their 20 year reunion. In support of their reunion and to help recognize and thank the soldiers for their service, Ruston High School FBLAdecided to assist in the planning and preparation for this event.FBLA participated in many planning meetings throughout the entire process. During the planning process, Mr. Lloyd R. Bruner, FBLA Adviser, and Elizabeth Smith, FBLAPresident, coordinated with military leaders and agreed that FBLA would prepare the invitations and the programs, as well as posters to provide all guest with the informationthey needed concerning the reunion. FBLA students were also tasked to handle registration for the soldiers on Friday, May 13, 2011, and on Saturday, May 14, 2011.On Friday night, FBLA members helped decorate and set-up the civic center for the next day‘s banquet. That evening, FBLA members reported to the National Guard Armoryto work with soldiers at their ―Meet and Greet‖. They placed program posters to ensure that everyone knew the next day‘s activities and assisted with registration, whichincluded sign-in, collection of registration fees, and the making and distribution of name tags.Saturday morning, FBLA members arrived early at the civic center and helped set up the breakfast area, the registration area, the souvenir sales area, and the name tag area.Members took orders for T-Shirts, processed late registration fees, and made sure everyone received a name tag and a program. Members also passed out DVDs to all the soldiersand their families. Members took part in the event as they had a reserved table and President Elizabeth Smith and Adviser Lloyd Bruner received certificates for FBLA‘sassistance in the planning and preparation of this event.The event was a complete success and FBLA members were proud to have participated in showing support for the soldiers.
