Officers Attend Leadership Development Conference JILG officers in Southern Illinois attended a Leadership Development Conference on September 24th and 25th at the Oil Belt Church Camp in Flora, IL. The conference gave each student a feel for what they will be doing this year and how to be a good leader for their class. Students were also involved in many activities that included trusting and working with officers from other schools, as well as working together with the JILG officers from their own school. Many activities were held outside on what they call the “ropes course”. The activities were mentally and physically challenging for all students. Students were split into their officer groups and had to work together to achieve each obstacle. From trust falls, to walking on wires, to climbing walls, the day was hard but very successful.
In the evening, Mr. Chuck Roach, President of the Challenge Leadership Program, spoke to the JILG officers and teachers. Mr. Roach focused on four important skills: performance under pressure, risk taking, building teamwork, and reaching your greatest potential. He involved everyone in activities to reinforce his points. At the end of the day each officer group had time to work on certain projects for their JILG classes. The reporters had the chance to
interview students and teachers and find out just what they thought about the camp. Linda Spicer, the Central Region JILG Manager, was asked how students could use what they learned at the conference in their own schools and communities. She replied, “By being a positive leader and taking the job to heart. If you help out in the community and school, they see the work you’ve done and you get back what you put into it.” The 2008 Leadership Development Conference was successful. Many new friends were made, important skills learned, and true leaders left camp. Thanks to Tom Welch, the Regional Managers, staff members at the camp, and all of our Career Specialists who made this awesome experience possible! Article Submitted by Holly Weathers, Reporter

Students Travel to Flora, IL On September 11, 2008, all JILG students from Nashville High School traveled to Oil Belt Church Camp in Flora, IL, to participate in trust building and communication activities. All activities challenged students to go beyond their comfort zones and trust students they did not know well. Even during the most difficult activities, students agree that they learned the value of listening skills.
Students work together to help team members climb through the spider web.

The Class of 2009 Begins Community Service Projects. O A K D A L E
September was a busy month for JILG students. Work at the Oakdale Homecoming kicked off the Class of 2009’s community service work. Students served the public at both food stands. From one food project to the next, JILG hosted a stand at the annual Optimist Club Chili Cook Off. A few students even had the fun of participating in a Rock Paper Scissor Tournament on the JILG team, which was also sponsored by the Optimist Club. The final week of September was a busy one, beginning with the Nashville Cross Country Invitational. Students served as course guides for runners. Students finished the week assisting the Nashville Chamber of Commerce with various tasks surrounding the annual Fall Festival. The buzz word of the weekend: ADAPT! The fun has just begun. Students are currently in the process of planning community service and service learning projects for the future.

Casey Buretz Opens Neveah Spa and Salon The ribbon cutting made it official. Casey Buretz, member of the NCHS JILG Class of 2006, is now the owner and operator of her own spa and salon in Nashville. This has been a dream of Casey’s for some time.
Casey attended Kaskaskia College and majored in Cosmetology. After graduating, Casey went through the long and tedious process of applying for the Women’s Small Business Loan. She created and presented a successful business plan and was
awarded a loan to start her business. Casey believes the communication skills she learned in JILG helped her to ask the right questions and learn more about the process of opening her own business.
