I packed my Moraine Park Tech swag in a suitcase and headed over to our meeting place, the Beaver Dam campus, Thursday morning. We were going to Iowa for a full weekend at the APCA conference to check out entertainment acts and participate in educational sessions. APCA stands for the Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities.

We crossed over the Mississippi River before getting to our destination, Coralville. The hotel and conference were in the same building, which was nice because the weather was cold and wet. We had some time before registration, so we went to a nearby mall.
At registration we had an opportunity to participate in some service projects and novelties that were set up at a table. We wrote cards for soldiers, created encouraging letters for kids, made ghosts out of suckers and tissues, and decorated trick-or-treat bags for children. Then our group, consisting of Student Senate members from all three MPTC campuses, talked about the conference schedule and chose educational sessions to attend.
Our last activity of the day was to create a poster for the poster competition. Becca and I drew our mascot, the grey wolf, and incorporated the construction theme of the conference.
