Many High students headed to National FBLA Competition, fundraiser planned to support trip

Many High School is celebrating a major achievement as three members of its Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) chapter have qualified for national competition.

Students Cameron Lane, Shelby Carhee, and Emily Hammontree will represent their school and Sabine Parish at the FBLA National Leadership Conference this summer in San Antonio. The trio earned their spots after months of preparation and strong performances at the state level.

School officials say the students have demonstrated dedication, professionalism, and a commitment to excellence as they prepare to compete on the national stage.

To help offset travel expenses for the trip, Many High School is inviting the community to take part in a special fundraiser. A painting event will be held on April 30 at 6 p.m. in the school cafeteria. The evening will feature guided instruction from Shanna Gaspard and is open to the public.

The cost to participate is $20 per person, with all proceeds going toward travel costs for the students and their sponsors.

Organizers say the event offers a fun and creative way for community members to support local students while helping them take part in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Many High School officials expressed appreciation for the continued support from the community, noting that opportunities like this help students grow in leadership, communication, and career-readiness skills.

Residents are encouraged to attend the fundraiser and show their support as these students prepare to represent Sabine Parish on the national stage.
