Winter Board Meeting/Region II Service Day

For one of my final FFA events in the month of December the entire officer team and I headed to Suak Centre for our winter board meeting.  This was a great time to begin talking about convention, the nominating committee process, and delegate issues at state convention.

It was fun to catch up with some of the officers that I hadn't seen since state fair, and some of us just had some good laughs.  

After the board meeting Caitlin, Shari, Katie, and I headed to Staples-Motley for the Region II Service day.  We enjoyed making Christmas ornaments with the residents of an assisted living.  I met one lady from Ohio who can still remember when her husband was an ag teacher and their chapter was the Premier National Chapter.  It just reminded me that Agriculture is everywhere, and will continue to be for a long time.

We then packed up and headed home for finals.

This concludes the many posts I've made today.  I'll be back in not too long.  My family and I will be enjoying a two week family vacation in Bali, Indonesia.  Until then--
