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.

WEPC

The WEPC is collecting the following items for our elementary school: Box Tops for Education, Coborn's Labels for Learning (found at the bottom of your Coborn's receipt), Campbell's Soup Labels for Education, pop tabs, and Coca-Cola points. Please save these for us even if you don't have a student in the elementary school as it takes an entire community to help their school thrive. Please give any of these you have to a WEPC member or the school. Thank you for your support!!!
