SOLD (Students Offering Leadership Development) visited North Pole High School and met with students that were interested in creating an organization like SOLD. UAF SOLD members advised the high school students about how to create a student organization, and also shared their experience on how to run it. Now, there is a SOLD junior group at North Pole High School which offers leadership.

SOLD group went down to the Denali Chamber of Commerce and put on their very first presentation! It was fantastic! SOLD members learned a lot and the participants were also extremely pleased!
