Advisor The Future Farmers of America is a national organization that reaches from the state of Washington to Puerto Rico and from Maine to Hawaii. The present F. F. A. was first organized as the Future Farmers of Virginia, which was so successful under the direction of Mr. Henry C. Groseclose at V. P. I., that it was made a national organization in 1928 and was called the Future Farmers of America. The F. F. A. Chapter of Stephens City was organized in 1926 by Mr. Grover Kinzy and chartered in 1930. There were fifteen members and George Wright was elected the first president. The history of the Stephens City Chapter has been outstanding in winning many honors, among which were placing second in the state chapter contest in 1940 and being chosen as one of the four best chapters in the United States in 1940. Chapter advisors in the past have been Mr. Grover Kinzy, Mr. J. A. McKenny, Mr. R. A. Wall, Mr. Fred A. Dobbins and Mr. J. W. Henderson.
