The Future Farmers of America is a lo- cal state, and national organization. Its main objectives are leadership, partici- pation, companionship, and entertain- ment. The F.F.A. competes in creed contests, speech con- tests, parliamentary procedure contests, and numerous judging contests. This chapter finances its yearly activ- ities by a yearly magazine sale. It also sells Slow Moving Vehicle sign at cost. The G. E. T. chapter has received a superior rating for the past six years. It has been awarded a special plaque for the work in the Building Our American Communi- ty program the past two years. Our members are re- warded with pheasants, trees and corn for their projects. Each year one or more seniors have received their Wis- consin Farmer Degree at the state F, F,A. Convention at Green Lake Wisconsin. Many members receive awards on a special awards night each spring that is given for parts and members alike. The Wisconsin junior Dairyman's Association is a pro- gram to promote dairy herd testing and dairy herd improvement. The W.J.D.A, is open to all students in high school who has milk testing records on his dairy herd. We participate in the sectional meeting and two day convention. The members compete in speech contests, demonstration contests, dairy cow classification, and dairy cow exposition. The W,j, D.A. is incorporated in our F.F.A, and op- erates as a total part of the vocation agriculture program. Our members also enjoy many activities of entertain- ment. County Fairs, State Fairs, North West Livestock Exposition, senior fishing trip, and spring class basket- ball tournaments round out a complete F,F .A. yearly program.
