FFA Activities Bring Rewards The Northwest Future Farmers of America (FFA) Chapter began their year by attending a convention in Kan- sas City, Missouri, where they viewed the many sights and attended a special vespers session held in honor of Veteran ' s Day. In March, they earned ribbons at state and district competitions by using basic farm skills in working with foods and animals. At their banquet in April, new officers were installed and awards were given for public and extemporaneous speaking; beef, swine, sheep, and diver- sified livestock production; and management of poultry and forrests. An award was also presented to the outstanding first year member. FFA is sponsored by Mr. John Dolnicek.

Future Homemakers of America (F.H.A.) is made up of students from the Home Eco- nomics, Child Care, and Adult Living classes. Although F.H.A. members spent much of their time at conventions and work- shops, they also managed to stay active in their local chapter. Candy was sold after school to raise money for the National Headquarters Building Fund Drive. F.H.A. also sold Apples with a Message . During April F.H.A. members who were in Child Care were required to carry an egg, representing a baby, with them at all times for several days. Penalties were handed out to any mother whose egg was broken or showed signs of child abuse and neglect. On April 29 the annual Honor and Recognition Award Ban- quet was held. Angel Birkes received the Outstanding Mem- bership Award for consistent leadership, hard work, and complete dedication.
