MacDonald and Niquette were Event Managers for the 52nd Annual Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA) Statewide Conference held in Nashua yesterday. Elkington served as a first-time Judge.

"The whole experience of assisting in the Statewide DECA Conference was very good," says MacDonald, Production Control Manager of NH Ball Bearing, Astro Division, a 450-person manufacturing facility in Laconia. "The courage displayed by hundreds of high school students was incredible as they competed in formal role-playing events throughout the day. Many thanks to NH Ball Bearing for allowing me to give something back to the educational community of the State."
