In which city was the first CRLC held in 1968?

The first Chartered Leadership Responsibility Conference (CRLC) was held in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1968. This event marked a significant milestone in the development of DECA, providing members with opportunities to engage in leadership training and network with peers. St. Paul was chosen as the location due to its infrastructure and support for hosting national events, which facilitated a collaborative environment for DECA members during the early years of the organization. This gathering laid the groundwork for future leadership conferences, creating a precedent for the mission of fostering leadership skills among students in marketing and entrepreneurship.
