They Forgot to Mention the Random Jobs an Officer Does

    This summer has been a busy one with Area Officer responsibilities. It started in June with Area Officer Institute (AOI), to today while working at the Missouri State Fair. But I think someone forgot to warn us about some of the not-so-nice jobs that come along with the title.

The First of Many Lasts and The Begining to a New Chapter

    Today was my last first day of school and also my eighteenth birthday! Being a senior in high school doesn't seem real right now, I can remember being my younger brother and going to high school as a freshman.

Agvocate Spotlight: Peterson Farm Brothers

    If you haven't heard of the Peterson Farm Brothers you may be living under a rock. They are proof that anyone can share their agriculture story, no matter how old you are. These three brothers ( Greg, Kendal, and Nathan) make parody music videos of popular pop songs. To be honest, I prefer their version. I also do not care for pop music most of the time. Anyway these three get to be the first in the Agvocate Spotlight!

Missouri Amendment 1

    It seems to be that when an 18 year old is interested in registering to vote is only during the presidential election. Being the one that supports Missouri Agriculture, I was really excited that I could vote YES for "Right to Farm" Amendment 1.

Silent for the Last Three Months

    I apologize not posting anything for the past three months! With FFA and school I have had barely anytime to write. Here are my experiences from Area Banquet, District Contest, State Convention, and our Chapter Banquet.

And Let FFA Season Begin!

   I apologize once again for not posting anything for a while. But I have a good excuse, at least it is a good excuse in my book, but Missouri FFA season is picking up! These past two weeks have been filled with FFA, it is my favorite time of the school year. :)

FFA Week in Review

    Sorry I haven't posted in a couple weeks, my life has been crazy with FFA. We just wrapped up FFA Week and we are getting ready to start contest teams. I will talk about that later, FFA Week is the topic of the day for me!
