Congratulations to Darrian who took 2nd place in the Missouri Beta banner competition!  Over 30 CHS Beta members attended the state convention held in Branson over the weekend.  Darrian’s banner was designed with the 2013 theme “Heart of Beta.”  Her second place win qualifies her to compete at the National Beta convention in Mobile, Alabama in June. 

In recent years, Clearwater High School has performed well in the banner competition, having the national first place banner in 2011 and a 5th place win at nationals in 2010.  (Both of these banners were created by Rowdy Moss.)
