Maroa-Forsyth and Blue Ridge Celebrating FFA Week

FFA chapters across the nation this week will be hosting festivities to celebrate FFA Week.
 
The Maroa-Forsyth FFA chapter places an emphasis on business outreach during FFA Week. Reed Jostes, treasurer of the Maroa-Forsyth chapter, indicates their chapter makes sure that members get to meet business leaders that are in the area that they are interested in.
 
 
Jostes says business development is a year-round outreach program for the Maroa-Forsyth FFA chapter. He emphasizes the importance of this outreach due to only having a majority of members who wish to have careers in the agribusiness field.
 
 
The Blue Ridge FFA chapter hosts an annual petting zoo for elementary students to promote FFA. Nick Becker indicates that the petting zoo will feature many different farm animals, and the agribusiness class will have a project that will coincide with the petting zoo.
 
 
Every FFA chapter highlights FFA week differently with many chapters celebrating with spirit dress up days and various outreach programs.
