Six girls and advisor Bill Ausdemore brought back three trophies for projects that were completed last year. Their trophies were for Traffic Safety Week, Elemen- tary Safety Education, and Announcements at Ballgames. Bake sales in the lunchroom raised money for the club. They also worked the concession stands at basketball games and wrestling matches to finance their local ac- tivities and the state convention. Putting safety leaflets in the basketball and wrestling programs was a major project of the organization. Traffic Safety Week will be held in early September, with bulletin boards, posters, selling but- tons, washing car windows, and handing out leaflets high- lighting the week.

A Future For America was the slogan for FFfl Week, the highlight of the year for the Future Farmers of America. During the week, the members, with the help of the journalism staff, put out the FFA paper; distributed 500 plastic litter bags; and gave color booklets to the third graders. Leading up to FFA week, the students sent two of their members to the national convention in Kansas City. With the financial help from the Kiwanis, Jaycees, and Lions; Robert Hosek and Randy Lucas made the trip representing CHS. Fourteen Greenhand members were initiated this year. Nineteen FFAers made it to the rank of Chapter Farmer. Three of the local officers, Robert Hosek, reporter; Randy Lucas, secretary; and Rusty Heenan, vice president; were elected to offices on the District 4 level. The Building Our South Dakota Communities project for the year was the purchase of grass seed for the new athletic field, irrigation train and hoses for the field, rebuilding of three backboards for the City Hall bas- ketball court, application of pre-emergence spray and special spray for the trees and noxious weeds, as well as other minor projects. The organization harvested a crop of oats and oat bales on school lands. They used the profits to purchase a $625.00 disk for use on and around the tree plots. Individual members of the FFA showed their skills in various contests and projects throughout the year. Chamberlain’s entries in the SCS local contest were led by Rusty Heenan, 1st place and $25.00.
