️️⭐️Officer spotlight for our 2026-2027 Rusk FFA Treasurer, Keelee Wilcox️️⭐️
Keelee is starting her Junior year, her 4th year as a member of the Rusk FFA, and is in the Animal Science Program of Study. In FFA, Keelee has participated in Chapter Conducting, Quiz, and Skills Demonstration Leadership Development Events. As for Career Development Events, Keelee participates in Livestock Judging and Land Judging. Keelee’s Supervised Agriculture Experience projects are Commercial Heifers, Breeding Heifers, Breeder Poultry, Market Poultry, and working at the Tri-County Livestock Market. Keelee’s reason for running for chapter office this year is she wants to be part of the impact FFA makes. FFA has taught her leadership, responsibility, and how to work hard for the things you earn. Keelee wants to show every person that no matter how many things go wrong, you don’t give up, you keep pushing through and keep working. Keelee’s personal FFA Goal this year is to learn more about herself so she can better understand where she wants to go in life and help others discover the path that best fits their goals and aspirations. Keelee is active in the Cloverleaf 4H Club and Gallatin Church of Christ. After graduation, Keelee plans to attend college to earn a degree in Agriculture. Keelee’s favorite FFA memory is selling T-shirts at State Convention. It helped her make new friends, connect with the members around her, and make memories that will last a lifetime.Keelee notes her greatest achievement as getting first place in class at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. Keelee’s favorite quote is “Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.” Micah 7:8 KJV Lastly, a piece of advice that Keelee would like to give other FFA members is FFA isn’t just about long nights studying, losing contests, and getting lectured on what not to do on your Scantron. It’s so much more, so don’t give up on the hard stuff because the best moments are just around the corner and are worth every bump you took to get there.
