FFA Week: Heyworth Promotes Student Participation

FFA Chapters around the country are celebrating the program. 

 

On the WHOW Afternoon Farm Show Monday, Chapter Vice President Emma Quinton told Regional Radio that they'll kickoff the week with trivia and dress up days. She states they have a good core of students who participate, but there's a misconception among Heyworth students that this week is just for students in FFA. 

 

Chapter President Jolee Maharas indicates that her favorite part of FFA Week is the events they get to plan and participate in. For example this year the chapter is hiding rubber ducks around the school that students can turn in for prizes. 

 

Maharas explains she got involved when she was a Freshman, and since then the program has grown her skills in making connections with other people. Treasurer Jeffery Klawitter says he's grown in his public speaking skills. 

 

Find more information on the Heyworth High School FFA Chapter on their Facebook and Instagram accounts. 

 

Keep it to Regional Radio for the Afternoon Farm Show Tuesday to hear from the chapters of Maroa-Forsyth and Lincoln. Hear it on WHOW and all its digital platforms or catch the live stream on Facebook and YouTube.
