• Be sure to lock your door when you are in your room as well as when you leave.
• Call the front desk to verify any unexpected deliveries or room service.
• Do not leave your door open while you are in the room.
• Always tell your advisor where you are going.

GENERAL TRAVEL TIPS

• Never leave money or valuables in your room; use the hotel’s safety deposit box.
• If you see any suspicious person or activity, notify hotel management.
• Ask the hotel for the most direct route to restaurants and shopping. Don’t wander through shortcuts.
• Don’t go out alone; travel with at least one other person. There is safety in numbers.

Honorary Life Membership is the highest award DECA can bestow on an individual. DECA is pleased to present a new member
of this distinctive and deserving fellowship.
KEVIN REISENAUER | NORTH DAKOTA

Kevin Reisenauer has dedicated his career and life to marketing education and DECA,
contributing more than 40 years to the organization. His affiliation with DECA started
when he was in high school where he served as chapter president and state reporter. He
continued his involvement in college and started teaching marketing education, serving as
a local DECA chapter advisor for 22 years. During his last five years as a chapter advisor, he
also served as the DECA and Collegiate DECA state advisor for North Dakota. For the past
17 years he has served as the supervisor for marketing education for North Dakota Career
and Technical Education.
While serving as an association advisor, Kevin has committed time and energy at the
international level. He served on the Secondary Council as a local advisor, which was his
first stint on the national level. He has taken on many roles with DECA Inc. He served five
terms (15 years) on the Board of Directors, three of which were as the President of the
Board. He also served on the Collegiate Council and the Secondary Task Force. He was a member of the Competitive Events Task Force
and the liaison to the National Advisory Board. He chaired the Competitive Events Task Force for two years and served as an event
coordinator for both the high school and college ICDCs. He was the Chairperson of the Executive Officer Elections at both the high
school and college conferences for more than ten years.
He currently serves as the Chairperson of the MBAResearch Board of Directors, a partner with DECA to prepare the performance
indicators for our competitive events.
With a visionary philosophy and an educational mindset, Kevin has developed programs to strengthen student learning experiences,
leadership opportunities and business partnerships. The true results of his leadership and involvement in DECA are the thousands of
individuals’ lives that he has changed because of their DECA experiences.
