Corn planter purchased for FFA convenience After another busy year, the Garrett FFA Chapter was rated superior by the State FFA Association for the seventh year in a row. Garrett judging teams won the county livestock and dairy competition and went on to tie for third in area livestock judging and to place sixth in area dairy judging contests. At the district convention Gar- rett members ranked sixth in the area asa chapter. Individually Jean Lange won the horse proficiency contest, Doug Holbrook placed first in diversified livestock profi- ciency, and Frank Weller placed second in swine. A team of Doug Holbrook, Frank Weller, Dean Hatton, and Tim Knott par- ticipated in the state livestock judging competition in June. Another highlight of the year was the purchase of a corn planter. This enabled the club to have more control over plant- ing dates instead of having to wait for a rented planter. Besides the wheat crop for the year, members also made money by selling garden seeds. In December and July members attend- ed state leadership camps. Evening meet- ings, a swimming party, a Christmas par- ty, a watermelon feed, and a fishing day at Chain O’ Lakes State Park rounded out the year for FFA members. The club was led by officers Doug Hol- brook, president; Kevin Thrush, vice- president; Linda Haynes, secretary; Jean Lange, treasurer; Rob Knott, reporter; Sterling Robbins, sentinel; and Mr. Andy Giegold, advisor.

German Club votes to end active status German Club initiated ten new mem- bers by requiring them to stumble through an obstacle course blindfolded. Highlight of the year was a trip to the Heidleberg Restaurant in Huntington on May 6. Club members enjoyed trying to read the German menu, which included such items as saurbraten, bratwurst, pota- to pancakes, German breads, and a salad bar. The good food, dancing, and singing featured by the restaurant provided an eventful and entertaining evening for members. The year came to a close with an ‘“‘End to German Club” party on May 19. Club members voted not to resume club activi- ties in the 1983-84 school year. | | | | | | SSS Top—German Club—Front Row—Mr. Gary Surfus, advisor; Brian Michael, Natasha Tschebykin, Jenny Baber, Kathryn Kemerling, Kirk Johnson, Jay Johnson.
