Our chapter took a few hard working individuals to Indianapolis to enjoy the 98th National FFA Convention. From learning to work through our fears at opening session, practicing teamwork at The Escape Room (we would have cracked that safe if we just had 2 more minutes I swear), exploring college and career options at the expo, seeing behind the scenes animal husbandry at the Indianapolis Zoo, to making memories together is at Beasley’s Orchard, it’s safe to say our FFA members had a busy and fun two days.

To reward our FFA members for working hard at the county fair food stand and at school, we treated them to an evening of laser tag at Team Combat!

Thursday, September 25th, some of our FFA members competed at the Area IX Soils Evaluation Contest. This was the first contest ever for some of our members and they should be very proud of themselves. The senior team earned 7th place and the junior high teams earning 6th and 9th place.

Wednesday our chapter treated our members to a fun little activity. We went to Bazz’s Roller Rink in Rensselaer! Lot’s of fun and laughter.

We would like to thank all of the FFA members, family, and friends who helped at the fairstand this year. We couldn’t have done it without out your support and hard work.

We would also like to thank everyone who supported our chapter by purchasing food. Your contributions help our chapter tremendously.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!

Don’t forget today, Sunday, is fair stand cleanup we’ll be here all morning.

Saturday
We only have one student helping for the lunch shift. We need a little more help than that.

We still need help Saturday.
If you can’t help then come help clean up on Sunday.

We’re in the final stretch! We still need help Friday night and Saturday.
