FBLA National Leadership Conference 2014

In June, Kaitlyn and Aaron Bachura flew to Nashville, TN to compete at the FBLA National Leadership Conference with their FBLA sponsor, Marita (also Aaron's mom).  Aaron competed in Agribusiness and Kaitlyn competed in Networking Concepts after placing in those events at the state level.  They were so fortunate that the conference was held in Nashville this year as Marita's brother, Mark Selby and, his wife, Tia, are singer/song-writers there.  Mark and Tia arranged a backstage tour of the Grand Ole' Opry for them and took them to the recording studio Mark has used.   They also went to the Country Music Hall of Fame Museum, American Pickers store.  Of course, Kaitlyn came back with many new friends -- some from Wisconsin and New Jersey.
