I am looking forward to serving as Ticktocker Council Representative again this coming year - especially since my sister will be a member of the Council as well. I love music and debate.

Meals on Wheels and the North Fulton Community Charities’ Child Development Center were two of my favorite philanthropies to work with. I attended the University of Georgia, where I continued my passion for volunteerism by working with the Special Olympics Gymnastics team. As a member of the Alpha Omicron Pi Sorority at UGA, I was able to participate in many other philanthropic opportunities, including the annual 5K called Run for the Roses, which raises money for the Juvenile Arthritis Alliance. I then attended Mercer University, earning a Masters in the Art of Teaching in Early Childhood Education. I currently work as a Spanish Teacher at Susan Stripling Elementary, a Title I school in Norcross, Georgia.

For my Class of 2012, I have held the following Officer positions - Corresponding Secretary, Publicity, and Vice President of Philanthropy. According to our Chapter's Ticktocker Procedures, I had reached my limit for being an Officer, yet I still wanted to be involved in the leadership aspect of NCL - hence my excitement when I heard about this opportunity to get involved on a national level! In my free time, I play Club soccer, hang out with friends, and of course, volunteer!

Laura Smith, Gateway Chapter (MO) Hi I'm Laura Smith but everyone calls me Abby. I am currently a freshmen at Westminster Christian Academy, in St. Louis, MO. I am on the JV Cheer squad for my school and that takes most of my time, but I also enjoy anything that has to do with the arts, music, acting, ect. I am really happy to be on the Advisory Council, and I hope it opens new doors to volunteering opportunities for the future. My most memorable experience of NCL has to be one day while my mom and I were working at Equine Assisted Therapy. I was thirteen so I couldn't walk beside the horses yet; instead I helped with the games and talked with the kids. On this particular day I had been joking around with one little girl who loved playing with the beanie babies. At the end of her lesson I was helping with the gate and cleaning up. When she got off her horse, she ran over to me and gave me the biggest and best hug I have ever gotten. It made me feel like I had really done something and was definitely an encouragement that every little thing counts.

NCL has taught me etiquette, respect, and responsibility. I have enjoyed meeting a different group of girls and going places to volunteer. My favorite was the Center for the Retarded where we got to paint with mentally retarded adults-it was so much fun. I would recommend NCL to all girls who have the opportunity because it teaches great things!!
