Sunriver Resort donated $1,355 to La Pine High School to support La Pine High School’s Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) program.
The donation of the proceeds from the Run for Chocolate event will help send qualified La Pine High School FBLA students to the National Leadership Conference in Nashville, TN this summer.
This contribution was made possible by the generosity of the Run for Chocolate participants. Although the run was cancelled due to inclement weather, many runners elected to donate their race entry fees to La Pine High School FBLA in lieu of receiving a refund.
Steve Parnell and Matt Montgomery accepted the donation on behalf of La Pine High School from Sunriver Resort’s Managing Director Tom O’Shea; Director of Operations, T.J. Pierri; Director of Human Resources, Molly Davis and Senior Marketing Manager, Molly Johnson.
“La Pine High School has enjoyed a long standing relationship with Sunriver Resort and we value our partnership with them.” said FBLA Program Advisor Steve Parnell. “Several of our students have worked events at the resort, giving them the opportunity to get some valuable work experience.”
Director of Operations at Sunriver Resort, T.J. Pierri said “Sunriver Resort is thrilled to have the opportunity to support La Pine High School and help positively impact the youth in the community and the surrounding area.”
