Nationals Overview
National Trip Dates: June 21st—28th, 2018
All Oklahoma delegates must travel with the delegation and cannot show up just for the convention.
Hosted by Wayzata High School in Plymouth, MN
Oklahoma does a pre-trip so our state’s delegation can bond and show up to the conference united.
Pre-Trip Activities may include: time at Mall of America and associated attractions, tour of the twin cities, an MLS soccer game, Minnehaha Falls Park, trip to the theater, scavenger hunt through the Twin Cities, and much, much more!
Total cost for the trip is $2,500. This money covers airfare, room, board, bus transportation, snacks, convention t-shirts, hoodie, rain jacket, buttons (and other Oklahoma swag for trading purposes), spending money, convention registration fee, and pre-trip/convention events. Basically, once a student has paid for his or her trip, the student should not have to pay for anything else.

CHARACTER STRONG
Being a huge John Wooden disciple, I live by his quote, "It's the details that are vital. Little things make big things happen." So I was immediately drawn in by the Character Strong program when they said that the little things make the big things happen in a school. They asked the question, "What if your definition of school spirit was that one hundred percent of your High School want to be there?" The Character Strong program believes this happens when you work on creating a school culture of kind people. So they built a curricula and trainings that allow educators to give young people the tools, accountability, and opportunity to be compassionate, kind people.
I'm attaching some of the resources they sent me and their contact info here.
