Fall Zone Conferencen (2004-2005) Fall Zone Conference was an intense day of workshops which helped build up your chapter and personal qualities. FZC was a conference designed to help each and every individual. Some workshops included investing into stocks which helped the collegiate members decide if they wanted to invest and it also helped the Pre-Collegiate members see what the benefits of investing were. There were other work shops like How to Strengthen your Chapter, which was a workshop designed for the E-board members and members alike. This workshop helped each member give a personal evaluation of themselves and ideas to help contribute more to the chapter. This workshop also helped the E-board members regain their focus so that they could build up their various chapters. FZC was a great conference because it helped each chapter on a personal level. Fall Regional Conference (2004-2005) Fall Regional Conference was a conference designed to build up character and networking abilities.
