Not pictured: Liz Bruggeman FHA The St. Ansgar Chapter of the Future Homemakers of America plays an active role in student life. It's a way for young adults to assume responsibility and gain leadership skills by working together. FHA has sponsored several activities this year: a kidnap breakfast to initiate new members; the annual chili supper in the fall; and we've hosted various speakers. There are also many activities that the FHA and FFA chapters take part in together: swim parties, hay rides, cook-outs, and Christmas caroling. The annual Sweetheart Swirl, a formal dance, is the major event that the two clubs plan and organize. Our chapter also sponsors Hush Day in February, awarding a Mr. Irresistible or Miss Hard-to-Get to the person who does the best job of either ignoring or persuading members of the opposite sex to speak with them. This fall, the chapter attended the District FHA meeting at NIACC. Laurie Low, our district representative, was chosen secretary of the district. The Rose Breakfast is held at the end of the year to install new officers and to say farewell to the Seniors. This year we had the opportunity and privilege of breaking in a new advisor, Mrs. Bonnie Wendt.

FFA St. Ansgar High School's FFA Chapter, under the advisement of Mr. Tom Dudding, has been involved in many activities within the last year. In the Fall, we initiate new members and Chapter Farmers at our annual Porkfest. In February we host a Parent-Member Banquet during which time proficiency awards and scholarships are awarded, and officers for the following year are installed. Some of our money-making projects include smashing herbicide cans for area farmers and selling fruit. We also participate in leadership conferences and state and national FFA conventions. Some of our members enter FFA contests in parliamentary procedure and speech. One of our more popular activities is Sweetheart Swirl, co-sponsored with the FHA.
