FFA
Tyler Swan, SDSU Senior Range
major, will be present from 4th block at Sanborn Central until after football
to work with Range Judging FFA members at Sanborn Central and Woonsocket
today. Junior and Senior members who are
interested in working with him should let Mr. Gross know so he can plan
accordingly. All Junior Ag Students who
work on range with Mr. Swan can convert their 2 page paper assignment into
extra credit if they attend. Again,
please let Mr. Gross know if you would like to take advantage of this
opportunity.
There will be a Tailgate Supper
sponsored by the Woonsocket/Sanborn Central FFA Friday night at the football
game. It starts at 6PM. A flyer has been uploaded to the Google Drive in the
FFA folder.
Crystalyx Cards are in. Be
looking for an FFA member to get yours! The $20 purchase of a Crystalyx
Card saves the producer $40 on one ton of Crystalyx. Net saving to the
producer is $20 per ton. This has a great fundraiser for our FFA Chapter
bringing in near $3000 last year. The SC/W FFA would like to thank the
Forestburg Farmer’s Elevator, Wessington Springs Farm and Home Center, and
Stan’s of Alpena for their support of the FFA through this program. Contact Mr.
Gross at shane.gross@k12.sd.us or by phone at the school if you have any
questions.
Thank you,
Mr. Gross
FFA Members: Please try on
your FFA jacket to make sure it still fits! The FFA Chapter will buy back
jackets that are in good condition for $25. You can then put this money
towards a new jacket (about $50). There are also jacket scholarships
available. Contact Mr. Gross for more information.
