“Our club leadership is currently looking into a Spring Conference to attend — the more funds available to us, the greater opportunity we have for this Spring Conference,” Kim said. “We are currently accepting donations and looking for club sponsors. We appreciate any support we can receive from the community and are proud to represent Farragut within Tennessee.”
This is a local Model UN conference comprised almost completely by volunteers, having a partnership with the Chattanooga State Honors Program.
This year was the conference’s third, and along with the Farragut delegates, it saw a participation of more than 300.
