Our FFA Officer Team kicked things off at the Central Area Chapter Officer Leadership Training (COLT) Conference earlier this month, building valuable leadership skills. Four of our members also participated in the Oklahoma Farm Bureau Capitol Camp, where they gained firsthand experience in the legislative process by debating bills in both the House and Senate.
The McClain County Fair was a huge success for the chapter. Forty members competed in livestock and horse judging contests, and our students submitted an amazing 77 indoor exhibits. The week was capped off with a successful livestock show.
It's truly amazing to see how hard these students and their sponsor, Erica Keen, work to represent Purcell High School. Their commitment to the future of agriculture is clear. Great job, Dragons FFA! 🐉
We will share results from County & State Fair in upcoming newsletter and you can also find them on the Purcell FFA facebook page! Thank you as well to our FFA parents & sponsors!
