WHERE TO TURN? 'Where to turn if it starts to burn was the theme for the National Future Farmers of America (FFA) Week along with FFA-Leaders for the New Fields of Agriculture. The student's projects were based on these themes. FFA members participated in displays at the West Mall and in area schools. Rich Ammon, president of FFA reflected, The kids to whom we went out and talked really enjoyed what we had to say .... Each grade schooler was allowed to put out a small Fire to learn how to properly bring a fire under control through the use of an extinguisher. Continuing 1985's project of creating a hardwood forest out of Monroe's Airport Park, members planted 3000 trees to go along with the 3,500 previously planted. The trees are important because they form a refuge for the wildlife and make a solid ground cover which prevents erosion. FFA members also worked on many other projects such as Conservation Days, Food for America, and the branding of area tractors. They also went to district, sectional, state, and national contests, as well as attending state, national convenions, and leadership conferences.

FIVE RECEIVE SILVER MEDAL AT STATE MEET Forensics membership may have been small compared to the other organizations, but according to coach Todd Trampe, We had a strong group this year. And our membership even included two freshmen — for the past few years no freshmen have participated. Long before the season began, dedicated members were working with their coaches. In addition to Mr. Trampe, Mrs. Spoerry and Mr. Stauffacher also coached students. The students chose their own speaking category. The range was wide, starting with storytelling and going through special occasion speeches. Monroe was well represented in many of the areas. The categories were limited to four students maximum for each area. The members attended one meet before the serious compeititon began. The indtial meet served as a practice trial where members got the feel of speaking compedtion. To qualify for the State meet, two preliminary rounds of qualification must be passed. At the Sub-district competition, 14 out of 25 points must be gained. At this level, all of the MHS members scored high enough to go on to the next stop. Members qualifying for the state meet must gain 19 out of 25 points at the Distrct level. Seven members qualified for state. Although seven members qualified, only five members were able to attend the State competition. Both of the freshmen were present at state, which is outstanding according to Mr. Trampe. Sara Munro, Carylee Govier, Amy Hudson, Kelly Knoke andjenny Goebel all received silver medals at the meet. Awards were given to the individual members of each class who scored the highet accumulated points. This year, awards went to Jenny Goebel for the senior class, Kelly Knoke for the junior class and Sara Munro tied with Carylee Govier for the freshman class.
