Each chapter advisor will have the opportunity to select three outstanding student leaders in their chapter to attend the CLA on Monday October 25th at the Bellevue Hyatt. The CLA will be an inspirational half-day of hands-on learning featuring great speakers, practical content, and an opportunity to connect with other chapter leaders from across the state.

After attending CLA your chapter leaders will walk away knowing:

- Successful fundraising ideas that will bring in more money for your chapter
For a small investment of $20, your student leaders will receive a binder with training materials from the day, in addition to a meal for lunch.
