Churchill FFA Marks National FFA Week With Spirit and Community Events

Future Farmers of America (FFA) members wrapped up a full week of activities March 2-6, celebrating National FFA Week with dress-up days, lunchtime competitions, and a few laughs along the way. Students showed their blue and gold spirit Monday with stick horse barrel racing, followed by “Anything But a Backpack” and dummy roping Tuesday, Italian soda sales Wednesday, “Country vs. Country Club” Thursday, and Farmers Day Off (pajama day) Friday, which included a petting zoo and the annual Kiss the Cow contest. In addition to the fun, members competed at Winter Leadership Training (WLT), where Paige Frey placed in the top four in Creed Speaking and Cody Frey earned a top four finish in Prepared Public Speaking. Advisors said the week was about more than dress-up themes—it was a chance for students to build confidence, sharpen leadership skills, and celebrate the agricultural roots that continue to shape this community.
