Our OLLI members recently had the pleasure of attending this year’s FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) Student Presentations at Penn State York—and what a wonderful day it was! 🎉

Members spent time with Penn State students, listening to their impressive presentations and celebrating their hard work and achievements. 👏 From creative ideas around artificial intelligence to thoughtful solutions for real-world business challenges, the students truly shined as emerging business leaders.

OLLI participants also had the opportunity to offer encouragement and constructive feedback 💬, helping students strengthen their communication and problem-solving skills for future presentations. It was a meaningful experience filled with connection 🤝, learning 📚, and shared inspiration across generations.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this such a positive and engaging day! 😊
