We observed a lively Business Session with new questions coming from members about the parliamentary procedure terms such as …What is to “postpone indefinitely” mean? What is a state caucus?
Besides meeting lots of youth from around the nation, trading pins and networking, learning about the culture and ethnic foods of southern California, delegates enjoyed leadership sessions, general session and some tourism to the San Diego Zoo, Coronado and Old Town San Diego.A learning experience for all.
