Calling all leaders 📢

Due to a change of school circumstances, we are in need of an addition to our officer team. If you’ve ever wanted to serve our chapter and develop your leadership skills, here’s your chance to jump in! How it will work:
1. Message an advisor or current officer (dm, email, Band) and they will give you the information needed to submit to apply. They will also provide an overview of the required commitments involved in being a chapter officer.
2. Applicants info will be put into a form for all current chapter members to cast their vote.
3. The candidate with the most votes will be announced and installed into office on Sept 16th

Reach out with any questions you may have!

Take a look at who’s standing ringside and you might see some familiar faces. Many of the people that are supporting our current FFA members at Fair are there because people also poured into them during their time in the blue jacket 💙 We are so grateful for this community that shows up beyond the jacket! 💛
